Why a Corporate Retreat at Grey Wolf Ranch Ozarks?
Corporate entity’s all question strategic leadership and management, especially in relation to the company’s core values and competitive advantages. In gaining a competitive advantage, many corporations and small businesses alike, have deducted that a corporate retreat with core facilitators within the company is the resolution to increasing productivity within management and through the corporate hierarchy.
At Grey Wolf Ranch Ozarks, we applaud these efforts and assist in maximizing corporate goals. Grey Wolf Ranch Ozarks creates a relaxing retreat while entailing a creative brainstorming process. We selectively choose a horse that will be a mirror image of each member to facilitate the short and long-term goals which need to be achieved. Our methodology of teaching has had success and long-term proven results with multiple companies worldwide.
A retreat at Grey Wolf Ranch Ozarks is a management tool incorporating equine, which can be used in a variety of ways. It has been our experience that a company is pursuing a retreat in order to address specific issues, and finding a way to rectify these problems – as a team. Do not let the word or phrase of “Ranch” fool the reader. The owners, Daniel & Christine Grey have created a concept of teaching and learning from their experience in high end corporate management. Our staff are thoroughly trained for such leadership events. Strategically speaking, all companies have a set of core values and goals that are created in order to increase profits and sustainability. At the core of these values and goals, we understand from experience that without a cohesive unit of a team, then the core losses effectiveness in communication and management. Grey Wolf Ranch Ozarks focuses on the corporate retreat, with a personal touch that will never be found elsewhere. It is the companies’ goals and methods of governance that we expound upon. By consulting personally with the facilitator and other key members of the group – we delve into and digest the concerns being brought while formulating a successful model for each individual that participates.
It is imperative to understand that we incorporate all key elements of discussion into a program called: Learn to Ride……..Ride to Learn. It is here that the secret of our success can be divulged. Our concept is completely unique in the fact that we give the credit of teaching to our equine friends. Each company objective has a direct parallel to the lessons horses have to teach us. Our customized equine workshops at Grey Wolf Ranch Ozarks explore a variety of personal and team building principles, but not limited to:
- Leadership
- Communication
- Negotiations
- Confidence
- Balance
- Delegation
- Accountability
- Being Result Oriented Not Excuse Oriented

- Body Language
- Eye Contact
Each of these crucial tangibles are taught in collaboration with our horses.
