At Travel Out There we have developed a Technology Detox Program – where all the participants have to leave their phones, tablets and computers at the hotel and head out for a day in disconnection and enjoying the moment. We guarantee you will come back as a fresher, more productive and creative team.  Our standard programme involves going out in to nature and working with our team building facilitators on team building workshops.   Please see Survive and Thrive for our more extensive programme.
 
We can incorporate some wellbeing activites such as yoga, mediation, creative workshops and or cullinary team building in to the prorgramme.
 

Digital Detox Program Overview / Scenario

The group think they are going on a sightseeing tour out of the city when suddenly the bus is forced to stop and hijacked by masked criminals.  All phones and communication devices are confiscated and the group are ordered to leave the bus. Abandoned in the middle of nowhere with nothing else apart from the clothes on their back - time to Survive and Thrive as a team. 

  

The group has to make decisions on what to do next to return to civilisation. During the adventure the group will learn bush craft skills, accomplish different tasks and overpass obstacles. Professional instructors will accompany the group to give certain directions and help instruct the group to accomplish different exercises.

 

The experience helps remind people how to 'live', the importance of sharing and how life can be made a lot simpler once priorities are in order! When in a 'crisis' or under pressure, team work and cohesive decision making is crucial in order for your team to succeed. 

  
 
 
Of course this is just a kick-start. In order to really beat the information overload you need a long-term plan, both as a company and in your private life. We can help to develop this with you during the Technology Detox program, specially suited to your company’s needs and routines.
