The South of France Experience
ZEN•ith in the South of France is a residential leadership experience held at Les Marguerites, Provence.
Set within a secluded Mediterranean environment, this experience creates the conditions for deeper thinking, perspective, and meaningful leadership work – away from the intensity of day-to-day demands.
Participants arrive Tuesday and depart Saturday, with the experience shaped around both the environment and the rhythm of the week.
A Different Pace of Work
This experience is intentionally slower in pace – without losing depth.
The structure creates space not just to think, but to see more clearly.
Each day balances:
Faculty-led leadership sessions
Strategic reflection
Peer dialogue
Extended time for independent thinking
The setting plays a role here.
Distance from routine allows different questions to surface – and different answers to emerge.
Leadership Work, Not Escape
While the setting is more expansive, the work remains focused and applied.
Participants engage in:
Real leadership challenges and decisions
Reflection on direction, priorities, and long-term impact
Conversations with peers operating at a similar level
Work grounded in the 5x5 Model® of Relational Leadership
This is not passive.
It is deliberate, focused leadership work – carried out with more space around it.
Time & Perspective
One of the defining features of the France experience is the quality of time.
There is space to:
Think without interruption
Step back from immediate pressures
Explore ideas more fully
Let thinking develop, rather than rush to answers
This is where clarity often comes – not in sessions, but between them.
What You Leave With
By the end of the experience, participants have:
Greater clarity on direction and priorities
A more considered approach to leadership decisions
Strengthened perspective on complex challenges
Practical shifts they can carry back into their role
The emphasis is not on volume – but on depth and precision.
