Alto Cayma Retreat

I am on my way back to Arequipa. The purpose of this trip is to facilitate a three-day planning session and staff retreat for the Mission of Alto Cayma. The retreat will focus on team building exercises and work to provide every employee of the Mission an opportunity to learn about the programs and projects of the various segments of the Mission.

The goal of the retreat is to unite all staff and employees of the Mission of Alto Cayma (MAC) into a team building event. Activities will include a discussion of the mission, vision and focus of the MAC, team building exercises, brainstorming session to discussion future projects and programs of MAC and an opportunity for staff and employees to provide their input and ideas on the current operational state of the Mission. We will discuss employee challenges and concerns and build ideas for the future direction of the Mission.

Days 2 and 3 of the retreat will be focused on the “Steering Committee” of the MAC and will work to develop a structured strategic plan for the Mission. Key members of the MAC staff will be invited to participate in this second day of the retreat and a structured agenda will be facilitated by the HBI retreat team. A strong focus of the second day of the retreat will be the development of 1, 3 and 5-year goals for the Mission. These goals will be developed with the ideas and input of the entire staff from day 1 of the retreat.

HBI is so fortunate to have Mr. Ken Kraybill as a co-facilitator for the events. Please check out the HBI BlogSpot for frequent updates over the next week.
