About Us
I started Corporate Motivation in 2007 after several years in the Adventure Based Training and Development market in Jackson Hole, Wyoming. Although I continue to believe in the value of challenging perceived fear and personal limits through adventure, I noticed that even though there were personal and professional transformations taking place there was no long term positive impact to the communities in which the high price retreats were taking place. The vision behind Corporate Motivation was and still is, to provide business and private groups a platform to give back to the community while still enjoying a customized retreat or event experience.
Our first program launched in 2007, PLAY (Philanthropy, Leadership, Adventure, Yoga/Mindfulness) was pretty quickly endorsed by Habitat for Humanity International and also vetted by an 18 month research study completed by Denver University. The white paper from the DU research showed a growing interest in this type of program offering and suggested sustainable interest for years to come! This proved true and here is a list of some of our accomplishments:

$60,000 raised for San Diego Habitat for Humanity
