Strategy Retreat in the Mountains
Tashkent – mountain resort above Lake Did you know? The lake below Chimgan is held back by a 168-metre dam Charvak is a reservoir: a 168 m stone dam on the Chirchiq, built in 1964–1970, holds about 2 km³ of water from the Pskem, Koksu and Chatkal rivers. Its name is traced to the Persian chorbog, "four gardens". Read more → – Tashkent
A strategy session needs a room without phones ringing in the corridor. We take the team out of Tashkent to a resort in the Bostanliq mountains above Lake Charvak: chalets, a conference room with large panoramic windows and daylight, and two restaurants with Uzbek and European food. The coach leaves in the morning, the first session starts before lunch, and the next day the team comes back with a plan.
