SOT • Survival Outdoor Training
SOT has been created to plan and carry out activities of
experiential, metaphorical and outdoor training for companies and organizations wishing to try out an innovative corporate training, deeply involving and really effective for the development of the professional skills which are required by the current market.
THE MEANING OF THE ACRONYM
The acronym SOT has been chosen as a reference for::
- the methodology of the outdoor training, intended as experiential and metaphorical way to build up and achieve actual and effective learning paths for the participating companies
- the utilization of the survival intended as a training tool, based on simulation activities, not dangerous activities aiming at experimenting and observing the behavioral dynamics, along with the tactics and the solving strategies they start testing.
CORPORATE TRAINING AND MILITARY WORLD
The business world and the military world are two fields which have much in common. Some of the survival activities used for the training courses are borrowed from the military training.
Teamworking, leadership, concentration and continuous training, tension towards the goal, are some of the elements that the company recognizes as belonging to the military context. The principle at the basis, however, is the idea that it is impossible to achieve high performances without efforts, without sacrifices or strong will. Great “deeds” can only be realized by adopting rigorous and disciplined behaviors. The soldier who endures long and hard trainings, in order to be ready once he finds himself operating in the operational field, adopts and applies the same reference values of the manager or the entrepreneur who revises a project again and again, while continuing to study new proposals and strategies directed to the development of his company and his business.
