The Scottsdale Resort at McCormick Ranch

Nestled between the dramatic beauty of the pristine Sonoran Desert and the burgeoning shopping, restaurant, gallery and club scene of Scottsdale, the resort is an oasis in the desert. The Scottsdale Resort at McCormick Ranch captures the elegance of historic haciendas of the past, provides a residential ambiance, and offers welcoming outdoor spaces.

Outdoor function space is the springboard for this fresh approach to learning and networking outside the classroom. It is said that the average meeting is two to three days long and the average attention span is eight seconds. Reconnecting with nature has been proven to benefit the mind, body, and spirit and allows significant memory imprints and connection of ideas. Expect fun networking to get to know each other on a more personal level, and relaxing outdoor sessions and transitions for renewal throughout the meeting.
