Management Training

The commercial world can be a noisy place with new initiatives, projects, programmes and techniques crying out for attention. More than ever people in business need to make meaning of the contexts they are in. Magdalen offers a safe haven for business teams and leaders. Our programmes provide the chance to explore, listen and learn away from the usual places of work.

Our courses call on wisdom from some of the latest change and management theories, psychology and organisational thinking and it helps put the fun back into business. When work and leadership demand so much thinking time and relentless change we can forget how to live. Magdalen provides the time and space to live a little.

Courses and programmes:

Team Building:

Teams are all about people. For a team to really work well requires a deeper understanding of ourselves and those close to us. Magdalen’s team strengthening activities help develop that understanding by:

Who can benefit from:

Learning how to effectively solve problems as a group.
Experiencing and learning the importance of trust, cooperation, and communication.
Practicing skills in interpersonal relationships in a safe environment
Transferring learning from a fun experience to the real world?

Magdalen’s team building programmes are deliberately flexible. Courses can run for a day or - if your team needs a longer time away together – a 3 day event. We use the landscape a lot so you’ll find there are plenty of activities which, on one level, are a great deal of fun but provide real insights on working and relating in team.
