“I was keen on quality, one-on-one coaching, and mentoring to help me grow in areas I had been pondering over.”
“Having recently transitioned from a long tenure in the C-suite, I believed immersing myself in a leadership retreat would offer the mental clarity and support I needed through this next step in my career.”
Atmosphere & Support
"Our retreat leader's courage in sharing her challenges inspired a depth of dialogue and connection I've never experienced before."
“The coaches helped me to 'helicopter above' my current situation, providing a clearer view of my path and purpose.”
“From the moment I arrived, the retreat fostered a welcome sense of community and a safe space for vulnerability.”
“Something that made this retreat so special was the natural connection formed amongst participants.”
“Our fireside chats as a group became a safe haven for us to be open about our personal and professional challenges. And the coaches were right there with us, sharing their own stories, listening, and genuinely caring. This sense of community was pivotal in making the experience as enriching as it was.”
“The support from Canyon Ranch staff and Loeb Leadership was extraordinary, and the retreat's atmosphere encouraged open, honest dialogue among the participants.”
“The Loeb Leadership team’s warmth, wisdom, and genuine passion for nurturing leadership from within was clear from day one. They knew when to nudge me out of my comfort zone, but always made me feel encouraged and supported.”
