WOW - if you are looking for a leader with an unstoppable mindset, look no further than this group of women who scaled the Dolomites mountains with us in Italy this week.

They navigated many unknowns and challenges, and did it all with an amazing sense of humor and resilience. We learned, we laughed until it hurt, we cried, and we overcame so much together.

Our bodies depleated, our minds engaged, we learned in the valleys what we could never learn at the peaks. We am humbled, grateful, and proud of what we did this week.

Keep your eyes peeled for our next leadership development retreat that takes the boredom out of learning - we will be hitting Thailand in January of 2025, taking on a humanitarian project mixed with other challenges that, we believe, will transform the way you show up as a human, and a leader.

Visit www.boredroombreakouts.com for information on the trip and to learn more about our workshops, team building opportunities, and more innovative leadership development for your team!

Have you ever known exactly what you SHOULD do in a difficult situation, but in the moment, your actions fell short? The good news that even when you really “miss it”, you typically still learn because you ACTED.

You aren’t an ignorant person, and I know you probably don’t have ignorant people. You are probably intelligent and hire highly intelligent people. The tough news is that we live in an information rich society with less and less people taking action because that learning curve can be painful.

The hard truth is that good teams stop thriving because many organizations don’t have a great way to create frameworks for learning through failure and we become paralyzed - especially in group settings when others are watching. We stop trying new things, we stop learning, and we become stagnant - even really good teams that know all the answers in theory!

Psychologically, our brains build new or rewire old pathways based on lived experiences and is looking for constant feedback for growth. We live in an information rich society and this hurts us when we don’t have a way to apply our knowledge into action.

This quote from Jed Meyer articulates so perfectly the challenges that many individuals, leaders, and organizations face.

Ready for us to build frameworks with you that help your teams think divergently, stay gritty and innovative, and be willing to risk the pain of trying new things because we make it fun and engaging? We are ready for you! Reach out today to schedule a meeting! www.boredroombreakouts.com

We’ve officially been breaking out BORED rooms for 1 year- and what a year it has been with the most innovative, caring, and unstoppable humans!

Before we launched our corporate focused adventures, we led hundreds of participants through amazing, global adventures. But when we saw how much impact we could have helping amazing businesses improve the lives of employees through teaching real-life skills in the most fun + engaging was, we knew we had something really special!

Since our launch 1 year ago, we have added on-site/off site 1-day workshops, a leadership development course, AND The Fun Committee which delivers FUN team building games that develop soft skills to teams every month!

THANK YOU to every individual, team, and business who has said yes, embraced the unknown, and used it as a catalyst to change the way they approach life. We cannot wait to see who year 2 brings into our community and the transformation that comes with unstoppable growth.

26/03/2024

We caught this amazing moment when dove headfirst (kind of literally) into helping out a fellow participant in the middle of a snowshoe snafu. We are proud to say that 16/16 humans survived that adventure! ;)

It’s easy to forget how often people are watching us. Not to judge, but to understand who we are. If we do what we say. If our actions align with our beliefs. It’s moments like this that show true leadership- a willingness to serve and to care. To help another human through a struggle.

This wasn’t the only moment that we caught Carl breaking out his leadership skills, and since it was a good reminder for us to lead with love + compassion, we wanted to pass it along to the rest of our community.

Thank you, Carl, for showing us again and again what humility, compassion, and leadership looks like in action. You can see Carl’s ethics and leadership in action as the owner at MC Aquatic Construction, and you can see the great team of advisors who helps him navigate his business successfully at . They invited him to the retreat that we hosted in Montana and we are so happy that he said yes!

, CEO of Boredroom Breakouts joined Julie Keyes on the Poised for Exit Podcast to discuss how change management and adaptability can be used to strategically improve the value of your business!

At Boredroom Breakouts, we document this training so that it adds to the value and transferability of the business- wouldn’t you feel better about acquiring a business that has already invested in their team being able to navigate change and be able to thrive through unknown situations?

Among the many ways Sarah works with leaders and owners to develop stronger teams and adaptability to change is by coordinating and leading corporate retreats using a creative fusion of science and fun! Would you rather learn in a traditional class room (BORING), or would you rather learn it hands-on in ways that are fun, but also highly effective for learning (FUN!)?

Sarah shares the are 5 Core Human Fears that are foundational in fostering change, and that she works with each person to help them identify what their primary fears actually are. Sometimes what we think it is, actually turns out to be something that pertains to one of the 5 Core Fears.

It’s not just retreats- we offer leadership development trips for individuals to join, we host workshops (OR are they FUNshops?!), and are launching an exciting employee development series that makes it fun and easy for managers to teach skill development in engaging + meaningful ways!

Listen to the episode to learn more about why and how Sarah started this journey that ended in such a unique, but powerful experiential learning opportunity that is transforming individuals and teams with the goal of making businesses better, and ultimately, the world better as we learn to change and grow together!

Podcast alert: Innovative workforce development that takes your training from BLAH to BRILLIANT to build a culture that thrives through change- AND will increase your business valuation multiple.

➡️ But WHY would you do this before an acquisition or merger if you're trying to keep your cash flow as high as possible?
➡️ Because potential buyers will have confidence knowing that your team has the skills needed to adapt after key positions change- thus, giving you a strategic position to sell from.

Intrigued? We promise you've never heard a conversation like this, because no one is generating solutions like this. We are so excited to share more!

Join Julie Keyes, strategic Exit Planner extraordinaire and author of Poised For Exit, and Boredroom Breakouts CEO Sarah Line on January 25th as we discuss:
✅ The innovative way Boredroom Breakouts approaches training on our core fears, how these are triggered by change, and how we can develop stronger cognitive responses to adverse situations.
✅ How you can integrate fun AND effective ways for your team to develop effective adaptability and change management skills which can maximize your current productivity.
✅ How strategically positioning your training before a sale can actually be one of the best investments you make from a maximization standpoint.

Learn more by following Poised for Exit Podcast hosted by Julie Keyes and watch for our episode that is coming soon!

It’s nice when someone comes along that says good things to you. But in the back of our heads, and in our hearts what we really need is to believe it ourselves. There is nothing like feeling unstoppable after someone comes along and empowers you grow and thrive. That is a gift some people possess, but the ones that don’t can easily learn through science.

Being empowered requires 3 things:
1. A framework that provides clarity around not just the outcome, but around the unknowns during the process.
2. The expectation to fail. All great things are learned through poor experiences, failure, frustration, and pain points. Failure should be a part OF the process, but through the framework (mentioned above), risk is mitigated and navigated.
3. Rewards in the process- resilience is built through showing up over and over again. It’s easy to beat yourself up in the process. Identifying pivotal wins that have little to do with the outcome are essential for recognizing that we are getting it RIGHT even in the messy middle. The more we get it right overall, the more our confidence grows.

How do you empower your leaders to empower their team?

Let us know below or visit our website to see how YOU can use science and fun to learn, create your own frameworks, and empower your team through experiences!

Remember, the goal is not to change each other, but to change together, because when we do, we make this world a better place for ourselves, our teams, our families, our companies, and for the world.

Change is hard- it’s also lonely when we change alone. The BEST change starts with acknowledging our human journey and cheering on each other’s growth.

Which permission do you need to get better at giving in 2024?
