When & Where?
Kaiserlodge in Tyrol, Austria
All the magic happens at fantastic Hotel Kaiserlodge, nestled in the northern limestone Alps in the Eastern Alps. This place has it all, including a rooftop spa and pool. It's the ultimate spot to let your thoughts wander, get creative, and simply unwind. We can host a maximum of 50 attendees and it would be wonderful if you were one of them.
For who?
After talking to a whole bunch of new and more experienced UX leaders, we realised many of you have been facing the same questions:
How do I handle changing relationships with peers and stakeholders?
How can I proactively shape strategy and UX maturity, while juggling so many ad-hoc tasks and asks?
How can I redefine success, purpose and personal growth, now that my tasks have changed?
Do you work in UX in a leadership role and are you facing these challenges? Then this retreat is for you.
Program
Not a fan of sleeping in (or loving the rare chance to stay in bed a little longer with the kids away)? Feel free to join our morning yoga session!
Enjoy the hotel's wellness area, surrounded by Tyrolean mountains... have you discovered the swimming pond yet?
