What to Expect?...the Unexpected
Leadership Experiences
StoneWater’s Leadership Experiences are 3-4 days and take place in the continental United States. They typically have a theme that ties closely to the training location. Before beginning your experience, you are provided with physical and mental preparation plans and also provided with a personal packing list.
Leaders fly into a central airport, link-up with their team and are “all-in” for the duration of the program.
All food, lodging, local transportation, specialized gear, technical training and expert guide services are included.
Upon completion, you will receive a follow up 1 on 1 debrief, in-depth peer feedback and the opportunity to design a plan to implement your lessons learned.
These events are high-intensity and high impact.
StoneWater Training’s Expeditions
StoneWater Training’s Expeditions are similar to our experiences but generally run 4-14 days long, cover a broader spectrum of leadership and personal development themes and can take place outside of the continental United States.
4-14 Days
22-24 OCT 25
This fall, StoneWater Training invites you to step into the unknown and challenge yourself and your leadership for 72 hrs alongside a team of other diverse, purpose driven leaders.
Leadership involves taking a team (or yourself) into new, uncertain terrain in order to grow or further your mission. This course will center on how to do that with intention, identify and mitigate risk and boldly lead yourself and your team to new heights.
This event has physical and mental preparation programs included as part of it. Once on the ground in Utah, training is a blend of academic and experiential events complete with real-time feedback. Upon completion, attendees will receive a one on one debrief and application coaching session.
Like most SWT events, we cover all food, lodging, gear, guides and transportation on location. You bring yourself, your personal clothes and a willingness to learn.
Capacity: 11 leaders.
Registration deadline: October 1st or until at capacity.
