Executive Team Building

This unique program offers executives a way to help at-risk youth, while engaging in valuable team building exercises.

team buildingHere is what some executives recently said after their team building day at the Village:

“I wish it could have been two days”

“Rightly or wrongly because the day was ‘free’ and it was through a not-for-profit group, I anticipated that there might be a lack of professionalism and quality. I could NOT HAVE BEEN MORE WRONG.”

“Far exceeded expectations – level of facilitation was one of the best I’ve ever been a participant in.”

“Absolutely exceeded expectations. I learned about myself, my team, and the Village.”
