The Leaders’s Retreat^TM is an intensive workshop designed to enhance your effectiveness as a leader through reflective practice

What is Reflective Practice and Why is it Important?

Reflective practice is a window through which a leader can review and refocus on their work… in ways that enable her/him to confront, understand and work towards resolving the opportunities and challenges in a complex and uncertain world (adapted from Johns, 2000).

No matter which organisation or field of endeavour, reflection is the key to effective learning. Developing reflective practice (whether in the moment or after meetings or other events), as part of your day-to-day routine will help improve what you do and how you do it, increasing your competence and confidence in responding to challenging coaching engagements.
