“The PNW retreat that Margaret Smith planned was so much more than I could have imagined. I am not from the region and I walked away with tremendous growth from just one weekend; it was that POWERFUL!  From the venue to the food and the amazing people and presenters, Margaret had every detail mapped out and it flowed seamlessly.  I can only hope that my name is on the invitation list for the years to come.”

“The PNW Retreat has positively impacted my life both personally and professionally. I now feel a strong sense of community with women from around the country who have similar careers, aspirations, visions, and big ideas. The laid back environment was conducive to learning, sharing, and connecting. This retreat helped show me the value that I add to my team, areas that need improvement, and new systems that could help our business. Since returning, I have been more motivated than ever to help my team surpass our goals.”

“Margaret Smith put together an incredible retreat for specifically administrative leadership on teams/market centers. We all know we need some special training ;), and boy, did she put together an event to never forget! If you or your admin is looking to expand their vision, grow personally, professionally, and learn from executive assistants, transaction coordinators, director of operations, the list goes on in terms of admin, this is the retreat he/she must attend. What better way to train your admin by sending them off for a few days to reset, refocus, and learn from those who are in the trenches? The event was incredible, cannot wait for the next!”

“The 2017 PNW Operations Retreat, was by far the most beneficial training, class, event, I have had personal growth wise. Which for the admin type I think is over looked! I cannot express the amount of gratitude I have for Mo! Her passion for admin is just incredible and has forever changed our world. I would highly recommend this retreat to any high functioning admin. In fact, I would make it mandatory. :)”

“I am always looking for ways to grow, learn and raise my lid. When the opportunity to go to the retreat came up, I jumped at the chance. I'm so glad that I did! The connections I had made and strengthened here have grown me already, and will continue to feed my growth going forward. I can't wait for next year!”

“Don't consider coming, don't think I'll ask if I can come next year when I know more, have more to share or become a better version of myself...just come and be prepared to be vulnerable, open and learn more about yourself and your business than you ever had.”

"I attended last year's retreat really unsure of what direction I wanted to go with my career. After spending time with this amazing group of talented and driven women, I came away with focus on what I really want the rest of my career to look like. The wide array of speakers from various fields gave us so much wisdom. It was truly one of the best weekends I have ever had. I can't wait for next year. “
