You may find cookie cutters in our kitchen, but not at The Leadership Lodge. Every retreat itinerary is built around your business goals and designed to deliver the outcomes you want to take back with you to the office.
Abby Oxborough knows that sometimes you need to step back to find your way forward. At six years old, her family built what would become her future office when they constructed Sugar Lake Lodge.
Immersive, hands-on experiences give your team the skills they need to perform at a higher level: making decisions under pressure, communicating with clarity, and aligning around shared goals.
This weekend-long retreat nourishes mind, body, and soul. Blending yoga workshops, wilderness activities, and unhurried time, you may just find your people among the community of women who come here for the same reason you did.
How often do you think about how you show up for your team? Most emerging leaders will say, not enough. The Prouty L3 Leadership Development Program encourages you to ask that question. Then, helps you explore ways to build your personal and professional skills to better serve yourself, serve others, and serve your business.
Camp Collaboration is our flagship three-day program, built around the skills that drive everything else: communication, collaboration, and teamwork. Developed by the Director of Leadership Programming, Abby Oxborough, our program is fully customized to fit your team and achieve your goals.
Do you have what it takes to lead? You do. Regardless of title or tenure, this one-day summit is designed for women ready to step into their power. Great leaders are curious, compassionate, and confident. And those qualities? You’ve got them.
What if becoming a better leader was easier than you thought? Join us for our monthly leadership workshops to learn and strengthen practical skills. Co-hosted with the Grand Rapids Area Chamber of Commerce, we deep-dive into one critical business skill at each meeting and then practice it together.
Your team needs space to work. And we’ve got it. With a dozen room configurations and comfortable common areas, we can accommodate teams of all sizes. Stay a day, a week, or even longer. Our entire property is yours to work with.
Our 400 acres of Northwoods property play a pivotal role in the experiential learning process. Companies return year after year to do their most important strategic work along the shores of Sugar Lake.
What if the tech just worked? Here, it does. Every meeting space comes fully equipped with up-to-date technology that is intuitive, reliable, and ready to go the moment your team walks in.
300 acres of northern Minnesota scenery—there’s a golf course, too
Sugarbrooke Golf Course winds its way through 300 acres of pristine maple and oak trees, with beautiful Sugar Lake serving as its backdrop. Designed by Golf Course Architect and former PGA pro, Joel Goldstrand (a Minnesota native), this par 71, 6,548-yard course challenges even the lowest handicapper. You’ll find it easy to become distracted on our signature 18th hole, with trees bordering both sides of the fairway, a brook guarding the green, and a glare bouncing off the sparkling blue waters of Sugar Lake. It is a spectacular finishing hole on a course you’ll love to play again and again!
