Special Events
Monty and Pat Roberts offer an enriching experience
for your team building exercise, incentive trip, or
corporate assembly. In the beautiful Santa Ynez Valley
with its year-round fair weather, your team will experience
a 45 minute demonstration of Monty Roberts’
force-free training methods called Join-Up®.
You will see that with horses, these methods are physical;
with humans, these methods are psychological. Your
team will witness a unique lesson in the value of
trust-based relationships and communication. A delicious
ranch style barbecue follows, offering the perfect
opportunity to discuss the application of these philosophies
in your workplace.
Monty Roberts will be in residence at Flag Is Up
Farms in May 2008.

A Join-Up Story: Excerpt from Clive Warrilow's speech
to the 1998 graduating class of the Business School of Oakland
University.
"I became acquainted with Monty Roberts shortly after
coming to Volkswagen of America in 1994, and was truly inspired
by the techniques he used—kindness and respect for
the horses he trained rather than the traditional method
of breaking an animal’s spirit.
His basic philosophy was that the teacher must create an
environment in which the student can learn—which is
simple, direct and honest. A true life learning. “You
can’t push information into an unwilling brain,”
says Monty, “There’s no such thing as teaching,
only learning.”
The experience was so powerful to me . . . It fits perfectly
with the style of leadership that I had been experimenting
with since the early eighties.
After our [Volkswagen’s] reorganization, I took our
remaining executives back to Santa Barbara so they could
experience Monty’s techniques and philosophy first
hand. As we all walked single file around the training corral,
I remember haring more than a few remarks and some mumbling
under the breath about “What are we doing here?”
and “Where are the cocktails?”
And then, people began to experience what Monty Roberts
could achieve with a horse that had never before had a bridle,
saddle and rider. This was not just about a horse. It was
a metaphor for a style of management that says people will
be better employees if you treat them with dignity, respect
and honesty. Trust goes a lot further toward winning people
over than ordering them around.”
- Clive Warrilow, CEO Volkswagen
