Thatched style safari tents, clean mountain air and tantalizing meals compliment the friendly atmosphere of this riverside resort. Apart from being a perfect place to sit back, relax and enjoy the diversity that the nature has to offer, you can indulge in multi-adventure tourism activities like white water rafting, abseiling, kid’s rock climbing, hiking, mountain biking, and trekking to name a few activities that the resort has to offer. It also allows one to be in tune with the nature and to get an insight into the lifestyle of the local people while providing all the amenities of a modern resort. The resort also gives you an opportunity to do community service as the community schools are very grateful to whatever assistance they can get. About the course The course will be a time of discovery for you. Along with the fun and adventure will come some challenges. Indeed, the very purpose of the program is to help you find untapped resources within yourself and within your group; to help Why should you undertake the Borderlands training programs? As you are well aware, learning through experience has never been more relevant to organizations and individuals. The challenges we face today are increasingly demanding, complex and often unpredictable. They require individuals and teams to change - to think and work in new and effective ways. In partnership with you, the Professional Development Program/ Leadership Development Program’s unique expertise in action learning will ask you, your team and your organization to move beyond what you believe you are capable of doing. Our business is to challenge organizations and individuals to fulfill their potentials by providing them with the tools and experience necessary for inspired achievement. Program Design All the programs that the Borderlands Group offers are tailor-made to meet the specific requirements of its clients. In addition to organizing Professional Development Programs, Team Building Events, Leadership Development Programs, and Staff Retreat Programs, the Borderlands also offer multi-adventure tourism activities. We also have a dedicated team of support and logistical staff. Once the program is designed, a formal document outlining the course program, logistical requirements, post-course-follow-up and full fee details will be presented. Arrangement of the program At Borderlands, we recognize that we learn best by doing rather than by listening and reflect this in all of our interventions as experience is the best teacher. Active participation in our programs requires individuals to use a variety of intelligence: linguistic, physical, interpersonal and intrapersonal, then step outside the activity and look at the experience and their roles in it. We've found that experiential learning fosters and strengthens trust, creating an ideal environment for groups with diverse behavioral styles. Our entire outdoor programs are highly participative, providing a stimulating mixture of activities, exercises, role play, and review. The program is built around a series of high impact, motivating activities, projects, and challenges with participants working in small teams to be engaged in memorable experiences, fun and challenges that highlight the principles and practices of the clients. Teaching Tools We have many games and initiatives purposefully designed to meet even the most demanding corporate and leadership training goals and objectives. Each initiative is carefully chosen for its relevance to the workplace and areas of professional or leadership development that you wish to concentrate on. We also tailor the activities to challenge your team in a number of ways. There is plenty of scope for physical exertion in an activity where the perception of risk is high; although a high degree of creative thinking and problem solving may also be called upon. Each task has, at its core, the need to balance a 'task oriented approach' with constant awareness of the 'group process' before success can be realized. ‘KEEP IT REAL’- Why rafting is used as a teaching tool? Rafting fosters team work, trust in team members, communication, support mechanisms, risk management, controlling stress/anxiety, motivation, fulfillment, strategies for tackling change and uncertainty, raising individual and team performance and learning new skills. Borderlands will provide all safety equipments required during the rafting. These equipments include safety helmets, life jackets and paddles. Safety overall Safety is our concern and should not concern you. The Borderlands Eco Adventure Resort is a very safe place as it has twenty-four hour security service. During all your activities, the security guards will be very watchful to avoid any unwanted proceedings. Note: Just to be more wary, we advise you not to carry any valuables and cash that will be more than you would need for the occasion. Communication service We have CDMA phone services at the Borderlands Eco Adventure Resort that can be used for making or receiving calls. Entertainment and personal reflection At the Borderlands Eco Adventure Resort, we will also be offering the service of Yoga and meditation. There will also be live musical program and dance.
