OUTBOUND LEARNING
but where's the PowerPoint?
The spreadsheets sink in the rapids. Nettles tear apart the focus groups. A thousand feet above sea level, that sacrosanct client brief and the quarter-end presentation succumb to vertigo.

Attitudes@Altitudes, our Corporate Outbound Experiential Learning Division has been designed to tackle some of the most challenging behavioral issues in organizations.
The Genesis of Outbound Training
Dr. Kurt Hahn developed Outbound Training, which was first tested in the turbulent waters of the North Sea during World War II to provide young sailors with the experiences and skills necessary to survive at sea.

Why Choose Outbound Interventions?
Novel Environments
Outbound programs held in novel, natural environments distinct from participants' everyday surroundings.
Fresh Perspectives
The unfamiliar setting is key: it helps participants develop fresh perspectives on themselves and their usual environments.
Philosophy
All Outbound Programs are grounded in our philosophy of:
Experiential Learning
- The process of personal growth occurs through change as a result of direct experiences.
- Learner is placed in unfamiliar environments which requires problem solving, inquiry and reflection.
Challenge by Choice
- Encourage participants to test their potential without pushing them into the ‘panic’ zone.
- Participants see the advantage of setting challenging targets, but the ultimate choice lies with them.
Readiness for Sensible Self Denial
- Participants explore the minimum resources and make the best use of them.
- It examines our courage to let go of, not just materialistic luxuries but of the image of ourselves.
- Reflection of ‘who we are’ when we are stripped of our comforts and routine.
Tenacity on Pursuit
- All growth, innovation & a willingness to try & act out new feats in the face of fear requires tenacity in mind, spirit and body.
- Elements of stretch and perseverance.
Compassion
- Compassion translated in organizational context is empathy for people who you work with.
- Helps in building interpersonal relationships, trust and bonding.
