Our group business seminars focus on improving your business’s ability to adapt, learn, and make reliable decisions while managing risk. Within an hour, your group will be bouting with each other, having learned the basic foot and blade work needed to fence credibly. Then, the group will learn to apply decision-making principles while fencing, which will directly apply to decision-making in business.
Each seminar is conducted by Ron Hendricks, head coach and marketing consultant. For a decade, Ron formally was a senior vice president of digital marketing at EURO RSCG, one of the world’s largest advertising agencies, where he played an integral role in planning and executing effective online marketing and advertising strategies, including the first-ever integrated television-Web commercial.
Our seminar for businesses can accommodate up to 20 people at our facility in Kaysville, Utah. Our typical experience takes about 3 1/2 hours, but we can customize it to meet your needs.
Cost: $1,100 minimum. Email ronh@wasatchfencing.org, and we will work with you to set up a great seminar for your business.
