Hidden away amongst the sweeping Provencal landscape, you can get away from everything, allowing you to focus without unwanted interruption.
In a working world of hyper distraction, the best ideas and most powerful innovations come from taking time and space from the day-to-day demands to come together with the colleagues and clients who matter most. Here you have the opportunity to mix creative games, energising entertainment, fine wine and five-star food, with training, learning and development courses; senior management and team building; wine education and small conferences. Your host, Nicole , spent many years as Director of Programmes in the think tank world, working with top CEOs, Ministers, professionals and thought leaders to enable top ideas and new, inspiring content to be created.
The aim of Nicole and her team, therefore, is to offer you a springboard for discussions of substance; to furnish you with a confidential setting in which you can engage with professional peers or clients. Equally, she and her team simply want you to have a good time. For any successful business, the whole is always greater than the sum of its parts.
Which is why a custom plan of bespoke group activities - such as adult quests, treasure hunts, and themed team building exercises - can be created by the on-site specialists. Top executives also benefit from the vineyard backdrop and the chance to partake in a number of wine-related team activities, such as competitive wine blending or getting involved in the harvest. They briefed Nicole to provide them with a challenging offsite weekend so that they could think outside the box, in an environment where they could brainstorm and create.
Disruption was the key to success. Likewise, the Google executives were told to take advantage of this ancient setting; to aim higher and further with their collective thinking; and to leave with big ideas that would make the world a better place. The ancient sections of the property have been meticulously restored to combine 9th-century charm with 21st-century comfort. Although you might not always notice it, the rich history that surrounds you can help fuel the subconscious during your discussions.
