"The Women's Leadership Retreat hosted by Katie Ceccarini was the most transformational, high impact professional development experience I've attended (and there've been quite a few I've attended over the years). The way Katie was able to balance the sessions focusing on critical leadership content with the personal and professional connection building between the women leaders made all the difference. I came into the retreat hoping for professional contacts and some nuggets of wisdom, and I left with a ton of actionable insights and resources, a network of supportive and empowering women leaders, and a clear direction to level up my career and professional impact."
Norah Perez, Consulting Practice Manager

"I can't get enough of Katie content. I have done 1:1 executive coaching with Katie, have brought her into organizations to deliver the 6 week Excellence in Management training, and have attended her stand-alone workshops on Fearless Feedback. And yet this retreat still delivered new, valuable and incredibly impactful content. Katie has been one of the top three most impactful people in my career for years and I don't see that stopping any time soon."
Kelly Flowers, Head of Sales & Business Development

"Katie Ceccarini has done it again! Attending Leadership That Lasts: A Retreat for Women was an unparalleled professional growth experience. Over the course of 1.5 days, we engaged in powerful workshops on influence, negotiation skills, difficult conversations, self-critical thinking, and more, all alongside incredibly talented women. I walked away with a wealth of practical strategies, a strong network of inspiring women leaders, and a clear roadmap to elevate my career. I left the summit feeling both inspired and connected. And I've already referenced my retreat workbook multiple times because there was just so much incredible content. I cannot recommend Katie (or this retreat!) enough; her ability to integrate essential leadership skills with intentional connection truly sets her apart. "

“Katie has a wonderful gift for planning weekends that prompt deep discussions and meaningful connection in a natural, unforced way. Her weekends include sessions of learning balanced with activities that nurture connections and trust among the group and give room for fun. Moments of joy and connection lead help the learnings stick. It’s a gift to be able to show up and know that all the key details are accounted for and that you’re guaranteed to be in a place and with people who will support you. It’s just fun.”
Diana Schaffner, Product Counsel

Hi [manager]!
There's a leadership retreat for women I'd love to attend and I’d like your approval to expense.
This retreat is for women who want to strengthen their leadership skills and have a greater impact on the business.
I’ll have an opportunity to build my leadership brand, learn additional tools to negotiate and influence cross functional partners, network with other women, and more.
The retreat is being put on by Endurance Management Coaching, who was founded by Katie Ceccarini, a Certified Executive Coach and a start-up veteran. She works with companies like eBay, Yelp, VMware, Litmus, and more to develop their managers and leaders.
The guest speakers are equally as impressive.

It’s a breeze to get to downtown Boulder via the RTD bus (and the bus stop is just a block from The Bradley at 15th & Walnut) or you can get dropped off at their doors by Uber/Lyft.
