Tuck showed me that it is riskier to keep the status quo than to build the necessary change that shifts the course of an organization, of an individual, or of society as a whole. The Three-Box Solution and ecosystem strategy still ring daily in my head, as I deploy these tools for my community and my country.

The Tuck Experience

A setting unlike any other.

Thanks to its location in the heart of northern New England, in Hanover, New Hampshire, the immersive Tuck environment offers rich opportunities to refresh yourself mentally and physically as you're learning transformative new skills.

For decades, our staff has offered every participant the personal, connected, and transformative experience for which Tuck is renowned. Our executives return to work ready to apply their new frameworks.

  • Travel & Accommodations

    Part of what makes our programs so transformational is our secluded location in the Still North. Tuck is located less than three hours from Boston and less than five hours from New York City. Participants stay at the iconic Hanover Inn, a historic hotel with comfortable, modern rooms, located in the center of Hanover within easy walking distance of Tuck.

  • Dining

    Tuck provides delicious and healthy meals, including lunch and some dinners, for participants, offering a wide variety for all tastes. Coffee, tea, and light snacks are made available each day outside of the classroom. For the meals that are not provided as part of the program, participants often gather in small groups at one of Hanover’s many in-town coffee shops and restaurants, which serve up cuisines ranging from farm-to-table American and pub fare to Cuban and Nepali dishes.

  • Recreation

    Participants can keep up their fitness routines with complimentary access to the Lewinstein Athletic Center or by taking advantage of our rich natural resources with a hike through one of Dartmouth’s two on-campus parks. Participants may also enjoy visiting some of the College’s most iconic sites, including Baker Library, the Hood Museum of Art, and the Hopkins Center for the Arts.
