Boot Camps mean Business

Boot Camps mean Business


A new Cotswolds-based company is aiming to start a quiet revolution in business training.

Cotswold Business Boot Camps launch this autumn at Cotswold Conference Centre on the 370-acre Farncombe Estate near Broadway, Worcestershire.

“We have developed a new style of high-intensity training, as closely allied to the real workplace as humanly possible,” says CBBC director Mark Higgins. “The Boot Camp concept applies brilliantly to business training, without the need to get cold, wet or physically exhausted,” adds co-director Jeff Farish.

Each Boot Camp takes place at the Cotswold Conference Centre, which has eight dedicated training rooms, extensive outdoor spaces with team-building activities and panoramic views over the Vale of Evesham.

“The environment is a big part of what we do,” says Mark. “There aren’t sterile training rooms like you find in a hotel. The landscape is stunning and we use it to create stimulating and memorable events. The centre’s flexible approach allows us to get on with what we do best.”

High-tempo approach
Cotswold Business Boot Camps offer fast-track change that meets real business objectives. Its high-tempo approach is delivered by trainers who have years of expertise in public, private and charity sectors.

“Our philosophy is to provide clear, simple and effective programmes that enhance leadership and business performance. We don't need high ropes and assault courses to achieve that.”

Nick Akerman, head of sales at Cotswold Conference Centre, is delighted to be hosting the new Boot Camps.

“Mark and his team have been bringing customers to us for the past 12 years and we know they are some of the best trainers around,” he says.

“Their delegates return to work invigorated and ready to apply their experience to the real world. In a tough economic climate, it takes intensive training to make a real difference.”
