It's time to plan Executive Retreats & Team Building in the Middle East
View this email in your browser

The outdoor team building season in many parts of the Middle East is short. It runs from mid-October to mid-April. If you plan to organize an executive retreat or offer team building this season, it is important to contact us  now. Hotels, resorts, and other venues sell out early. The sooner you book, the more likely it will be that you can have your preferred rates with affordable rates for travel and accommodation.

If budget is a concern, we have also suggested places where your currency will go further.

We have included information about our most popular programmes and links to some  recent blog posts that I have personally crafted to help you with your planning.


About Executive Oasis International

Just to remind you, my company, Executive Oasis International, is based in Toronto. We use local providers for the recreational and outdoor components of our team building simulations. I am the only team member who flies from Toronto to work with your group. I have had the pleasure of personally facilitating top notch team buildingexecutive retreats, and workshops to help companies in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Oman, Egypt, Bahrain, and Saudi Arabia improve team and organizational effectiveness.

I do hope that we will have the pleasure of working with your team this season.

I am available to discuss your needs with you via Skype or Google+. without either of us incurring any charges Our ID is executiveoasis.

As stated on our website:

  • we specialize in  1 1/2 - 3-day facilitated business team building retreats, executive retreats, and business simulations
  • we do  NOT specialize in stand alone, 1/2 day activities that are strictly recreational
  • once a decision has been made to use our team building services, we will help you save time and money by assisting you in finding a resort, hotel or other venues that are close to where the team building is offered 

We specialize in real team building that delivers bottom line results. Yes, our programmes are fun but we deliver MUCH more value than a day of fun in the sun.

Reminder: Why You are Receiving This E-mail

We have previously connected for one of 3 reasons:

  • you have attended one of our workshops facilitated by our President, Anne Thornley-Brown
  • we have been connected on LinkedIn for some time now
  • you sent us a request for team building but we did not have the pleasure of working with you yet

As I don't believe in hounding people, I only send updates about team building in the Middle East abouti 2 - 3 times a year. Unfortunately, LinkedIn has changed its functionality and it is no longer possible to send messages to multiple recipients without exposing their email address. To protect the confidentiality of your information, we are gradually migrating our contacts  to MailChimp.

If you no longer wish to receive our updates, you can use the link at the bottom of this email to unsubscribe. Unfortunately, I will also have to remove you as a connection on LinkedIn as there is no longer any easy way to communicate with you.
