Leadership Offsites

Gather your team to build trust, deepen relationships and drive the business forward together

Looking to book your next offsite?

We work with teams in two different ways. Every offsite is custom designed to your team’s needs, whether we plan the facilitation only or the entire multi-day event.

Content & Facilitation

You have the venue. We design and facilitate the content.

  • Venue already secured
  • Your team handles logistics
  • Expert programming + facilitation

  • One point of contact
  • Best-in-class hotel and meeting accompodations
  • Dining, activities, logistics
  • We provide expert programming and facilitation

The four most common leadership team offsites we facilitate are:

Four focus areas

Every offsite is built around your objectives. These are the four starting points we ‘ve seen work most consistently across 150+ engagements:

Quarterly or Annual Planning

From competing priorities to shared commitments

Objective

Align on strategic priorities, success metrics, and a clear roadmap for the next quarter or year.

This is the right offsite when:

  • Priorities shift mid-quarter
  • Teams execute on different assumptions
  • Goals are reviewed, but not truly owned
  • “Alignment exists in conversation, not execution

Leadership Development

From strong individuals to consistent leaders

Objective

Strengthen leadership capabilities across communication, coaching, decision-making, and performance management.

This is the right offsite when:

  • High performers struggle as people leaders
  • Feedback is avoided or ineffective
  • Decisions stall or escalate unnecessarily
  • Leadership behaviors don’t scale with growth

Scaling Culture

From accidental culture to articulating the culture of your dreams

Objective

Define and align on values, principles, stories, and rituals that allow culture to scale beyond founders.

This is the right offsite when:

  • Values feel vague or inconsistently applied
  • Culture depends on individuals instead of systems
  • New hires struggle to assimilate
  • Teams make decisions using different principles

Team Formation & Alignment

From capable individuals to cohesive teams

Objective

Build trust, clarify working styles, and strengthen collaboration across the team.

This is the right offsite when:

  • Persistent friction or miscommunication
  • Low psychological safety
  • Conflict avoidance or recurring interpersonal issues
  • Teams work around each other instead of together

Every offsite is unique. We co-create custom solutions with you, these tracks are starting points, not a menu

Content-Forward Offsite You have the venue. We design and facilitate the content.

For teams that have already secured a location and want expert support on the programming, not the logistics.

What we handle

  • Pre-session design: your goals, team context, and what this offsite actually needs to accomplish
  • Agenda architecture built from scratch. No templates, no off-the-shelf modules
  • Expert facilitation on-site
  • Actionable outputs the team can use immediately after
  • Follow-up resources to sustain momentum

End-to-End Charleston Offsites

Full facilitation plus a fully curated offsite experience in Charleston, SC.

For teams that want us to handle it all – the programming and the experience. One point of contact. No bad corporate hotels or logistics falling through the cracks.

What we handle

  • Everything in the content-forward model: pre-session design, expert facilitation, actionable outputs
  • Venue coordination through our exclusive partnership with Beemok Hospitality Collection
  • Curated dining experiences with James Beard and Michelin-recognized chefs and restauranteurs
  • Activities and evening programming matched to your team
  • End-to-end logistics from first contact to follow-up

The Charleston partnership

Beemok Hospitality Collection

ScaleJOY’s exclusive Charleston partner. Beemok Hospitality Collection is the group behind The Cooper, a brand new boutique waterfront hotel in the heart of downtown Charleston. Elevated, well-suited for working groups, and nothing like a conference hotel.

Charleston has been ranked the #1 U.S. travel destination for twelve consecutive years. Our on-the-ground relationships give clients access and priority that standard booking cannot.

Experience options

Downtown Charleston is the setting. Everything else is built around your team: size, goals, and the kind of trip you want it to feel like.

Dining & Culinary

  • James Beard and Michelin-recognized restaurants
  • Private dining experiences
  • Oyster Roast at the Oyster Shed at Leon’s
  • Bespoke cocktail hours

Activities

  • Private boat tour
  • Golf
  • Community impact programming
  • Creative workshops
  • State of the art spa sessions
  • Downtime at the pool overlooking the harbor

Golf, a boat tour, a community impact day — all optional. The leadership work is always the anchor.
The experience is what makes it worth traveling for.

Ready to design the offsite your team actually needs?

Our approach is built with you at the center — your goals, your team, your timeline. If your team is at a real inflection point and you want alignment, decisions, and momentum that last, let’s talk.

Why Leaders Choose ScaleJoy

Joy is a wonderful facilitator… She has very strong leadership and project management skills. It’s been an honor working with her, and she will continue to be an asset.

Jen Newbaue, Associate Director of Training Programs @ Korn Ferry

Executives in high-growth environments need to pursue professional development with both practicality and agility, as every day brings unforeseen opportunities and challenges. I’ve been fortunate to have Joy as a coach.

Joe Sawyer, CMO @ Flashpoint Threat Intelligence

Ask anyone who knows Joy and they’ll say that Joy was blessed with being true to her name – Joy is quite simply a joy to have around…I kept thinking how lucky we all were to have Joy guiding us through this challenging year. Joy certainly helped me grow and knows the perfect balance of providing support and guidance. 

Joy is awesome as a leader of leaders, and often guided me on the importance of how educating and influencing is just as important (if not more) as executing on a vision.

Joy’s patience and willingness to help anyone and everyone in the organization made Joy feel accessible by all and motivated us in the People team to do the best job we can.  Thank you, Joy, for all your support and guidance!

Armi Noorata, Global Head of People Ops

Each program Joy facilitated was highly rated by participants for being relevant, practical, and actionable. Leaders consistently left the sessions energized and eager for more. As a facilitator, Joy brings authenticity, adaptability, and a deeply human approach to the room. She has a remarkable ability to adjust in real time to meet the audience’s needs. For example, during one of our sessions following a major layoff, Joy and I quickly collaborated to adapt the agenda, creating space for managers to process their emotions and navigate the situation together. This adjustment not only validated their feelings but also allowed them to engage productively with the session.

Sara Valin-Bloom, COO @ Bloom Dermatology

Joy’s optimism, enthusiasm, and vision make her a visionary in the HR field.

Katherine Corwin, Lead Employee Relations Partner @ Zocdoc

Thank you for the feedback you shared during our last call. It really resonated with me, and the changes I made as a result have helped me show up as the truer version of myself, not only in interviews but also at work and at home. It’s only been 2 weeks, but I have introduced new little habits into my days. Admittedly, having a new job that I am genuinely incredibly stoked for and where I already feel wanted and valued, plus the small changes, have really made a difference. I feel like the person I disassociated from over the last few years, and it feels freaking fantastic to be getting back to her.

Director of People & Talent Coaching Client

Given I won’t be attending future sessions, I did want to let you know that I really appreciated your approach and the way you coordinated your workshops. You’re clearly deeply experienced, and I was more even impressed with your incredible patience and understanding of the need for people to work through the fundamentals in order to change. Patience is not a virtue I possess, so I have tremendous respect for those who do!

Hopefully our paths will cross again in the future, but if not, thanks again and great to see you work.Hopefully our paths will cross again in the future, but if not, thanks again and great to see you work.

Dan Craig, Director of Growth at Massive Rocket

As an HR leader, Joy taught me how to be a dynamic, objective, and quick-on-my-feet strategic HR Business Partner to leaders in a fast-paced startup environment…

Katherine Merrill-Nabhan, SVP of People & Performance

I have so much to say about this experience.

Joining this cohort was one of the best decisions I’ve made recently.

It was part professional development, part therapy session, and part advice exchange with a group of people who sit in roles where we rarely get to speak openly about the things we carry.

The result? Real learning. A lot of laughter. Trust.

And meaningful connections with people who truly understand the work.

If the next cohort is even a little like Cohort 3… you’ll want to be in the room.

Roxanna Flores, Global HR Executive

Joy is instinctively good, which is pretty rare in my experience.

Sankaet Pathak, CEO of Foundation Robotics

 Joy is a natural leader.

Amanda K., VP of Human Resources
