Yachting, by its very nature creates the ideal environment to develop skills in management. It is the ultimate in team activities, demanding leadership, determination, commitment and a spirit of co-operation not available in other forms of adventure based training. Yachting can be used not just as an activity to get your team working together but as an effective assessment for staff recruitment and promotion.

To successfully lead a yacht safely into port participants have passed tests rarely faced in management!

Southern Cross Yachting Principal Mike Job has spent several years in the United Kingdom, conducting these events for some of Europe's largest companies and can offer the latest in sail based training techniques.

"Each course is designed to suit each group and we address the specific issues requiring attention within your organisation. We work with you in designing the course with very specific aims and objectives to be achieved. Absolutely no previous sailing experience is required as each group is led by our highly experienced, professional instructors who become an integral part of the team."

"Successful teams utilise the skills of all members and sailing brings all participants on to a level playing field. This allows positive interaction and ensures team learning opportunities for every member of the group. There is no where to hide on a yacht!"

The training aboard the yachts can be complemented with shore based activities leading up to the event, and debriefing after. These programs are an ideal addition to sales conferences and seminars and can set the theme for major sales promotions or product launches.

Southern Cross Yachting can arrange these activities for groups of any size from a ½ day to 3 full day and nights. We can arrange everything from catering to hotel rooms and flights and the costs involved are much less than you might think!

Yachting makes good business sense so whether it is a fun day out or a serious training event contact Principal Mike Job to discuss an activity for your company or group.
