This isn't for everyone
Brigadoon isn't for everyone, but it might be for you.
Many ask, what is Brigadoon all about, and frankly, it is complicated.
Topics change yearly and often address some of the most pressing emerging issues shaping commerce and culture.
Participants are never the same from year to year, and they come from a cross-section of industries and backgrounds.
Plus, there are never any powerpoints or audio/visuals - discussions around a fireplace is the main technology.
Some people hear it is complicated and run away.
But some people hear it is complicated and say tell me more.
Not everyone supports what Brigadoon is all about.
But you might be one of the people that supports what Brigadoon is all about.
If so, make plans to attend Brigadoon Retreat | Sundance this February 23-25, 2020.
