A Positively Peaceful Place ... just 1 hour west of Edmonton

Workshops & Retreats Retreats: Business is about people. The most under-utilized asset in most businesses is their people.  Short term and long term business success comes through training, leading, motivating, and monitoring this human resource. At Ohlers’ Acres, we offer your corporation, association, or group a safe, comfortable, peaceful environment for a retreat or business meeting.  Have some fun and stimulate creative thought in this oasis away from office interruptions. You are welcome to use our cozy meeting room (our capacity is about 15 people) or work outside in the fresh air.  We provide home-cooked meals and scrumptious snacks.  Accommodations are in our home and we partner with neighbouring B&B’s to satisfy your needs. Workshops: Allow us to custom design a personal development, communications, leadership, or team-building workshop, just for you. We help your organization, association, or business connect with or discover your purpose and mission.  We provide customized training and coaching to enhance communication skills, build effective teams, enhance self-esteem and self-confidence, stimulate leadership, and improve customer service. Measurable results include better morale and happiness, improved interpersonal communications, increased productivity, effective decision making, decreased employee turn-over, and improved profitability. All workshops and consulting services can be facilitated at Ohlers’ Acres, a location of your choice, or combination of the two. We (Dan and Carol with over 18 years of marriage) co-facilitate interactive, entertaining workshops. Our strong relationship adds a special touch in workshops such as:
