Sparsh – Feel your Soul

About the Program

Passionate about what we do at workplace is not accidental. Neither happiness is co incidental in a world full of stress, restlessness and competition. While body takes on the physical onslaught the mind is constantly wandering listlessly seeking harmony and peace while tackling host of actors up, down and lateral. Mind does little meaningful when not at peace and tends to lose balance and composure. The thought behind this program is to navigate participants through complex self and complexity of the world in order to have clarity of purpose and existence and help liberate with thoughts, mindsets and assumptions. This course proposes to learn while doing and thinking. Participants will spend ten days in mountains doing scores of stuff which involves leadership and thinking strategically and see life’s parallel to businesses, learn from old scriptures by taking a dive into philosophy and spirituality find its usefulness in corporate world.  Classes would be under the stars and in meadows, explore the toughness of body and mind through rigorous outbound exercises. Learn to listen, sit for long hours and sometime doing nothing and thinking or just mulling over a case study laying on a big rock. Learn to be one with the mind and body through Yoga or solving a strategy or HR problem within the group at the same time playing and just having fun. The nature has this amazing way of separating grain from the chaff when it comes to clutter in the mind and in the rough open settings participants would learn to bare their soul and then reflect. Reflection is the key aspect and then with extreme honesty ones’ inner self is open for discussion and expression. These ten days would involve working inside and outside. Working with oneself and working with the team.
