Our Team, Languages & Cultures

Lead by Example

DSCF7102We believe that prior to presenting yourself as a venue for corporate retreats and team building events, our own organization needs to lead by example. Many of our guests are successful entrepreneurs, lawyers, doctors and corporate officers who have complimented us on our culture and the way we manage and lead our organization.

Diversity of cultures, ages, walks of life and languages

Our management and staff speak several languages and have worked in and with a variety of cultures, countries and regions. Some have worked for many years in a global corporate environment at different levels traveling the globe and others have held top-notch positions in the military traveling the globe and leading people both in combat and on peaceful missions.

Others come from a cowboy and equestrian background. We combine a unique set of talents, demography, generations, experiences, and cultures working together to make this a great experience. You will be delighted to see that remote does not mean rustic or close-minded. On the contrary, you will be surprised to find a group of people that has worked and lived in the world you live in.

Our Culture – What we have in common

The Hideout TeamWhile our team and organization is very diverse, we do share the same culture. We manage, lead and hire our staff based on The 3 C’s of Character, Conduct and Competence with the knowledge that we can train for Competence but not for Character or Conduct.

We try to lead by example in everything we do.

Meyers-Briggs, Good to Great, The 5 Cultural Dimensions of Hofstede….

As you will notice when talking to management and the key group of staff, they are knowledgeable about what it takes to make a great team and to lead and manage them. We train our staff continuously to improve their individual technical skills in addition to the soft skills, cultural awareness and being great leaders and coaches.

Trust and Loyalty with low-ego and no personal agenda’s

We believe trust is the basis of it all. Trusting that our team members have the right intentions and trusting our team members to have the skill-set for the responsibilities there are hired for ensure the quality experience our guests have come to expect from The Hideout.

 

Booking and Cancellation Policies:

corporateranchretreats2

Year-Round Booking: Please be advised that from mid-June through mid-September (which is the height of our vacationing guest season), your corporate group would need to “buy-out the ranch” to assure booking during our busy season. This means a 20 person minimum.

Corporate events with fewer participants can otherwise be accommodated during our low season, which is from late October through the beginning of May.

Terms: The Hideout Lodge & Guest Ranch maintains a limited guest capacity to ensure a first-class Western guest experience, and has a high percentage of repeat guests (both corporate and private). Our booking and reservations terms are tighter than many other event providers or vacation resorts. This enables The Hideout to deliver excellence in Western experience.

Booking: An initial down payment of 50% is required to book your group event, secure rates, and confirm number of reservations (down payment is nonrefundable). Another 30% payment is due 3 months prior to arrival date, and the remaining 20% balance due 1 month prior to arrival date.
