 Yellow Mountain Trekking
Last week I treated my staff members an incentive tour---Yellow Mountain Trekking
The reasons are as follows:
The hiking could encourage a challenging spirit in the staff especially when they were climbing along the narrow and steep path up to the summit.
The team work could be greatly improved and upgraded as the staff must co-operate closely within the three days. Frustrations and depressions might be completely relieved and the staff could get totally relaxed in the great landscape for three days’ fun and sun. And back to their posts, the staff would become more energetic, more focused on their work at hand.
The business would turn over a new leaf. In my opinion, a yearly out-trekking is much more rewarding to the staff’s enterprise orientation than a big bonus allocated to everyone at the year end.
On Friday afternoon we packed closely in a 50 seat bus and rode toward the foot of the mountain. The scenes on the roadsides are fabulous, especially along the Hangzhou-Huangshan Express Way. Your eyes were fill with the green hills with tea bushes and white cottages now and then on the slopes. The water buffalos were lying the in the ponds or plowing in the rice fields. The most surprising scene on the express way is the rare traffic and I almost did not find a chimney so there is no pollution for the whole areas.
We started to challenge the mountain tracks early next morning. I asked all the staff members climb to the top.
The whole trekking to the top took lasted almost 5 hours before we gathered in the hotel to enjoy the lunch. Some of the guys tripled their usual amount, which surprised nobody as we all became a big eater.
Though dog-tired, everyone was intoxicated by the scenes along the paths, vivid-looking rocks, and gnarled pines on the cliff with white clouds in the blue sky. The long-bottomed desires were released free and our shouting was echoed in the gullies for a long time.
The sunrise in front of our hotel was splendid and attracted all the dwellers on the top. Camera flashes almost suppressed the sun’s shining. We were all satisfied with the tour effects and I really hope that my staff would
appreciate my intention to provide them a chance to get close to the great nature.
