Joe Hecksher, head of the City of Charlotte’s Department of Storm Water had this to say about the event, “There are very few times that our entire group is in the same place at the same time. When we are all together, it is a meeting to present several pieces of information. We never have one segment of Storm Water that pertains to our work that impacts 100% of our staff. While it may be interesting and folks are listening, we never have 100% fully engaged. Fruition engaged 100% of a diverse City Storm Water staff to integrate their strengths and surrender their individuality in order to reach successful team objectives.

Mr. Younger and his staff had a good mix of classroom, physical activities, and free time for the group. Some of the Storm Water staff who I thought would have never participated were very active in the retreat, which was great to see. This retreat was a big step forward towards our communication and teamwork goals.”
