Upcoming Patagonia Alumni Leadership Venture; January 7-16, 2005 (Includes flying time from the U.S.)
In January 2005, the Wharton Leadership Ventures
will offer its first Venture to South America for
alumni. This trip takes participants into the heart
of Patagonia to the famous "Torres Del Paine." Led
by Professor Mike Useem, Director of the Center
for Leadership and Change Management, and under the expert guidance of Vertical SA's world-class
mountaineering team, the Venture will provide a set
of engaged, hands-on experiences for exploring and
mastering the capabilities for effective individual and
team leadership in business and beyond. Participants
will have the opportunity to improve their capacities
to think strategically, communicate effectively, and
act decisively.
This week long program begins the afternoon of
January 8, 2004 in Punta Arenas, Chile. Participants
will spend the week trekking in the Torres Del Paine
National Park alternating between lodges and camping. A key highlight of the trip will be an afternoon of
walking and ice-climbing on Grey Glacier. It promises to be a challenging and invigorating program at
once fostering an environment for further leadership
development as well as providing the opportunity for
alumni to reconnect.
Enrollment opened on July 1, 2004. For further information and to enroll please e-mail Aldo
Boitano at aldo@vertical.cl or Penny Bamber at pennyb@wharton.upenn.edu.
