Getting out of our routine, whether on a short or extended trip, often leads to new perspectives and insights. Imagine taking those benefits one step further and intentionally choosing purpose and goals for your trips that are aligned with who you want to be as a leader and a person.
Then, follow through with them during and after your trip for professional and personal transformation. What would that feel like? What would that mean for your life? And from an organizational point of view, why are business and wellness professionals advocating for this kind of travel?
