Wildwood’s executive retreat center was thoughtfully envisioned and designed by founder John Deane, drawing on decades of experience in leadership and strategic consulting. Before launching Wildwood in 2018, John built a career as a nationally recognized healthcare consultant, working with over 250 health systems across the country. He was a sought-after speaker at more than 500 corporate board retreats and regularly planned and led executive retreats for his own leadership teams.
“The time we spent in retreat with colleagues was invariably the most impactful,” John shares. “It’s amazing how gathering a leadership team around a fire pit or on a pontoon boat can spark the kind of breakthrough thinking that shapes a company’s future.” At Wildwood, that belief is woven into every detail. The retreat center is designed to harness the power of play, nature, and intentional time away to spark innovation, build stronger teams, and inspire lasting results.
