Where do organizations go for offsites that help them escape the normal routines and think creatively?

Recently I was invited to attend a cyber security summit that was hosted at 1440 Multiversity.

What does 1440 stand for? It stands for the number of minutes in a day and how you are thoughtful and attentive of your focus areas.

The goal of this location is to disconnect and there is no television in your escape rooms. It is all about escape!

The turtles are always quick to escape as they like to remain secluded and not talk technology with humans.

I must admit the grounds are gorgeous, quiet and very supportive of an inclusive, green and sustainable learning environment.

You will be surrounded by 1000 year old redwood trees and still have mobile connections to upload pictures 😉

They have large open rooms as well as small places to effectively meet as teams or groups.

They also have secluded and inspirational amongst the deep forest to hold talks.

Given our very high profile and sensitive audience, we even had undercover security everywhere. They were on top of all threats and risks 24×7!

One of the amazing highlights was the food services. It was bulk service and hand constructed plates that was very quickly served even when everyone entered the “kitchen” dining hall.

The flavors were amazing and it felt like a Michelin Star restaurant!

All the food was freshly sourced and many things local. and if you are a wine aficionado and need a great pairing for a meal, they can accommodate and delight with some of their gems in their collection.

Of course…everyone is going to ask: Can you go running?

Yes, the trails are amazing but warning it is very hilly, but equally scenic!
