Learning outcomes
Join us for a day of reflection and thinking at South Loge Country House Hotel, Lower Beeding, Sussex. Structured small group sessions and 121 work are combined with fine food, country walks and relaxed drinks in elegant surroundings. We’ll work together to review the past, brainstorm a year ahead and share best practice. You’ll end the day motivated and inspired with a clear strategy for the coming year (and a full belly).
