LeadRPG Retreat

Summer 2026 at the University of Southern Maine

Registrations coming soon!

Leadership is an epic adventure.

Integrating Tabletop Role-Playing Games with Leadership Development

At LeadRPG, we believe that leadership is best learned through experience. Our retreats are meticulously designed to advance individual and teams’ leadership capacity, leveraging play as a tool to engage and develop self-awareness, an understanding of personal and professional roles, team identity, and group process.

Our Summer 2026 Cohort will explore…

  • Adapting to change

  • Collaborative group dynamics

  • Deepening relationships with self-awareness

This retreat is for you if you:

  • Crave experiential learning that sticks

  • Want to level up as a leader and a teammate

  • Believe play can unlock serious personal and professional growth

What you’ll get out of the experience

Three days of immersive play, workshops, and discussion guided by expert leadership game masters and coaches.

Challenging leadership development based on your unique goals.

A playful community to share in learning, dialogue, and have fun.

Location

University of Southern Maine - Portland Commons Residence Hall

25 Bedford St, Portland, ME 04102


We are excited to offer lodging as a part of our retreat experience! Participants will stay in new suites on campus (four private bedrooms, two bathrooms, a kitchen, and lounge) and take part in activities during the dates of the retreat.

What people are saying about Lead+RPG

I enjoyed the role playing and getting to bond with the other leaders through play. I also enjoyed learning and discovering things about each other and ourselves that we may not have discovered otherwise.
A highlight for me was the unique experience of the process, storyline, etc. I haven’t heard of anything like this prior to the engagement.
It allowed me some dedicated time to focus on my development and leadership goals, which is not always a priority otherwise.
