Our story, our approach The people behind Leaders on the Fly.

Leaders on the Fly was born from a shared belief that the river is one of life’s best teachers. Founders Nancy Willette and Suzanne Van Widvey combined decades of leadership experience, fly‑fishing expertise, and a love of experiential learning to create retreats that blend reflection, teamwork, and adventure. Together, they’ve built a space where leaders can disconnect from noise, reconnect with purpose, and cast forward with clarity.
