Take People Out Of Their Community To Build Community
Retreats are core, not ancillary
Our Spring Cohort is wrapping up — it’s not too late to apply for membership!
Every year we’ve done a Maxwell summer camp upstate.
Last month Maxwell members independently organized a ski trip without any help from our team.
Each time we do something like this we hear rave reviews of the bonding that happens and members bring those relationships back into the club and show up more often.
But while I’ve recognized the value of retreats, I have not always viewed them as a core part of the organism, the ecosystem, that we’re building at Maxwell.
I’ve admittedly at times rolled my eyes at organizations that are based on taking you out of your community to build community…
