Reprising the 2015 TV series, our own version of The Thunderbirds met at Stephen Brauer’s home in Petaluma. (Thank you Maryle for opening your idyllic, warm home to us.)
A beautiful, calm setting in Petaluma, 40 miles north of San Francisco – in the heart of California’s vibrant food and wine scene.
Seven leaders from different industries and backgrounds came together to connect, collaborate, create and commit – in a place where experiences, stories, hopes and problems were aired, shared and solved.
A day away from the hurly burly of the urgent and time spent instead on the important – learning from others in a safe, secure environment, imagining new approaches and stimulating the mind and the spirit. Refilling the tank and adopting a R.I.C.E. mindset (refreshing, restoring and resetting).
A brilliant day – Stephen, Jack, Karim, Alain, Juan and Andy – bursting with Enthusiasm and Energy. And all committed to one idea, Karim’s – “Better Than Yesterday!”.
We all need more days where we refresh, restore and reset our businesses – and ourselves.
