Wow - Have you yet seen Paddington in Peru? The biggest Team Development Journey this side of an election.
Paddington gets himself a passport and takes The Brown Family to Peru to find Aunt Lucy, who is missing him.
The Brown family consist of "Risk Averse" Mr Brown, the caring Mrs Brown, the lazy teenager - Jonathan Brown and the progressive and keen up and coming graduate - Judy Brown. And - Of course - Paddington.
The adventure takes them to "The Home of the Retired Bears", in the deepest Peruvian Jungle, which turns out to be not quite as it seems. They then end up on an adventure heading up the river with all sorts of trials challenges.
The risk averse Mr Brown has to face his fears early on. The caring Mrs Brown learns to let go and let things take their course. The lazy teenager, Jonathan transforms from a gadget obsessed intravert to an amazingly creative inventor. And Judy Brown comes home more confident and appreciative, ready for life's challenges and her upcoming academic progression.
The film has inspired me to further develop our training offers at Meon Springs.
So - Based in the depths of rural Hampshire, at Meon Springs, you can now bring your team on a "Team Development Expedition" or send your Graduates on a "Graduate Training Adventure". Challenge your leaders to a "Leadership Thinking Mission" or kick back and learn to relax on a "Realise Wellbeing Retreat".
Oh - and as it happens - this coming Friday, I myself am off to Peru with my family to find the lost child "Flo", who has succumed to a semester of night clubbing in Lima (where she is meant to be learning Spanish). And travelling adventures in the the Peruvian jungle and mountains. I will post some pictures and if we find Aunt Lucy, will let you know.
