Thumbtack Worldwide Travel Announces their 2017 Executive Leadership Retreat

BEDFORD, N.H. - Oct. 24, 2016 - PRLog -- Hosted by Sara Locke, Chief Travel Guru, and David Locke, Director of Sales, Leading Mindfully: A Journey will take place from May 6 through 13, 2017 on board the brand new Norwegian Escape. On this Caribbean cruise, executives will be removed from their everyday grind and participate in workshops to help them bring coherence to chaos and combat workplace burnout. Facilitated in partnership with StarlingBrook Leadership Consulting and Westwood International, this program will explore and address the challenges of being mindful in a chaotic world. A journey of personal exploration, this retreat is designed to assist executives in becoming effective leaders.

"In today's corporate environment, it's easy to get lost in the hustle. We often hear from executives who don't even realize how close they have been getting to complete burnout until they are already at a breaking point," says Sara Locke, Chief Travel Guru at Thumbtack Worldwide Travel. "When planning our open executive retreats, we try to cater to the needs of our own clients and their businesses. A recurring theme: workplace stressors. To run successfully and profitably, a corporation's leaders need a particular skill set that enables them to remain centered when faced with extreme challenges. In our 2017 retreat, in partnership with world renowned executive coaches, we aim to fill those gaps and also provide an experience beyond compare."

Along with building a set of skills necessary for everyday productivity, attendees will have the opportunity to network deeply with global leaders from a variety of industries on a state of the art cruise ship built in 2015. Visiting ports in Tortola, St. Thomas and the Bahamas, the opportunities to practice the skills discussed in daily workshops are unrivaled. Attendees will return refreshed, centered and ready to tackle their daily challenges in an entirely new way.
