Could It Work for Me? A Personal Reflection on an Outdoor Development Programme

Abstract

From a highly personal perspective seeks to discuss the outcomes from participation on a particular outdoor development programme. Draws on learning logs completed during the programme and subsequently on return to work to reflect on a personal development agenda and on the broader potential of such learning for team building. Concludes that the problem of transfer proved a major constraint on real personal development but that provided that such issues are recognized and appropriately managed then the potential of such learning is considerable.
