Leadership: getaways to get ahead.

Abstract

Doubters may deride them as boondoggles--and with some justification--but the management retreat is a staple among high-performance organizations of all types. It's no longer a hyped-up name for a weekend fishing trip for the inner circle. From a walk in space to walks in the woods, retreats offer ways to build up you management team and break down barriers to good ideas and smoother relations.
