Why do this?

• It’s 4 days away in a stunning location.
• You will find the answer to the most important question you could ask yourself in this lifetime. 
• If you are serious about finding a new level of effectiveness, meaning and connection with life you will at some stage have to answer this question  so why not do it in a stunning location, working all your intelligences?

So... how does cycling relate to finding one’s purpose? 

• To find and live your Purpose in a short amount of time you have to ask yourself some big questions. When you ride a bike you work your metabolism, improve your internal eco system, release endorphins and serotonin and access multiple forms of intellgence. 
• The rhythmic repetition of pedalling creates a harmony between your conscious and unconscious minds. 
• You feel better, you think better and you give better answers to the questions. If you were going to enter a Formula 1 race you would want your vehicle to be at it’s very best? The same is true for optimising your body, mind and spirit to help you to your next stage. 

Is it all about me? Isn’t that a bit self-indulgent?

• How many people rely on you? your decisions? your clarity of thinking and capacity to listen and understand? If you don’t look after yourself, you can’t look after them. You have to put petrol in your car to give others a lift home. It is self-regenerating rather than self-indulgent. 

• There is also a bigger picture here.... If you are a leader of a business or organisation regardless of how many people you look after, you are probably looking to change or transform that organisation in some way. We are in an unprecendented period of change in the world. People who are not thinking about how this will effect them and those who depend on them are not true leaders. Driving change and transformation is a very specific skill-set and is not one with which most people have grown up. 

• It has been my specialism for over 20 years.. Change and transformation always starts with Purpose. If you want to change your organisation you have to be that change. It starts with you. So you can look at this retreat as an investment in you and an investment in your organisation. Your body will thank you and so will the people around you. 

Who else is will be in the group?

• This retreat is dedicated to leaders. Some  come from the private sector, some from the public sector and others from NGO’s and global organisations. The aim is to bring an eclectic mix of people. For every 10 places bought one place will be given free to a charity or humanitarian organisation. 

• You will be surrounded by people who experience similar pressures and challenges and who are asking themselves the same questions at the same time. Of course, there is great wisdom and benefit in sharing insights and understandings with the group but you will never be under any obligation to do so.

• The truth is people make extraordinary bonds in an environment such as this, ones that you’ll take with you when you go.
