Executive retreats · Salt Lake City
Leadership retreats for Salt Lake teams.
We work with leadership teams across the country, from our home in Dallas–Fort Worth. If your team can get away, take it somewhere great. The right place helps a team slow down and think together. If you’d rather stay close to Salt Lake, we’ll run it there. Either way, we interview every leader, design the days and run the room in person.

Get away
Take your team somewhere great.
If your team has the time and the budget, we always encourage getting away. A few days with nowhere else to be gives leaders room to think and talk. A few of the places we’d start with:
Close to home
Or stay near Salt Lake.
The Wasatch Mountains rise right behind the city, so a Salt Lake team can be at a mountain lodge in under an hour, or drive on to the red rock canyons around Moab. Every place has room for the whole team to work, eat and stay together.

Group: 20 to 80

Questions
Retreats near Salt Lake.
Do you facilitate leadership retreats for Salt Lake City companies?
Yes. Everest Collective is based in Dallas–Fort Worth and works with leadership teams across the United States. We interview every leader before the retreat, usually by video, then the two founders facilitate on site, wherever the team goes.
Should our team travel or stay close to Salt Lake?
If the team has the time and the budget, we encourage getting away. The place is never the most important part of a retreat, and the right one still helps leaders slow down, step out of the day to day and talk. When travel doesn’t fit, a place within a couple of hours of downtown Salt Lake City works well too.
Where can a Salt Lake leadership team hold a retreat nearby?
For a team that would rather each leader have a room at the same hotel or resort: The Lodge at Blue Sky, Sundance Mountain Resort, Sorrel River Ranch. All are within a few hours’ drive of downtown Salt Lake City.

Most of the places on this page are at their best in May, June, September, October. Each venue page lists its own best months and what to plan around.
