We’re sick of boring conferences. We think you should be, too.

Events, whatever their size, are an investment- in time, in money, and in taking people out of their day jobs- so you're going to want to make the most of the time you have together. 

People often have low expectations of what a conference will be (lukewarm coffee, PowerPoint slide decks, a succession of speakers), so anything you can do to exceed that will only be a good thing. But it can be hard to break the mould.

We have over 25 combined years of experience in designing and facilitating engaging and impactful events for a range of businesses, in a variety of industries and sectors, across the world. 
​
If you're looking for impact, or to take your event to the next level, we'll help you to go as far as you want to go, bringing energy, enthusiasm and experience to shake up people's expectations. We'll give you permission to try something new...and we'll support you every step of the way.

We can help you with:

• Collaborative event design
• Facilitation- in-person, virtually or through hybrid events​
• Interactive and hands-on exercises and activities

TEAM BUILDING SESSIONS

We don’t really like the phrase “team building”.  It suggests that a team can be built in a day…but they can’t. They’re not rafts. 

What you can do, however, is give your team an exercise that unpacks relevant themes and replicates the day-to-day tasks the team undertakes…where they can have fun in the process.

So if you’re looking for a bit of “something different” to inject life into your event but don't know where to start, look no further.  Our sessions are always fun, always relevant, hands-on, and help build relationships in ways that "team building" never could.
​
We’ve got a whole catalogue of exercises and activities for you to choose from, with a range of themes and problems that they explore. 

​Please see our “team building” page for information on the sessions we could run for you.

EVENT DESIGN AND FACILITATION

We’re often approached by businesses to help them do “something different” when it comes to their next conference or event. Everyone’s level of “different” is…well, different…so we’ll help you create what works best for you.

We'll work with you to help you to create a memorable event from start to finish, collaborating with your team to ensure the event is successful and impactful, providing creative ideas and recommendations around style, theme and event experience.

We can look at the structure of the event to keep up the energy, mixing your business messaging and content with interactivity and time spent building relationships. We’ll ensure delivery is engaging, speakers are briefed, and no-one is bored to tears with PowerPoint. 
​
We’ll also include any interactive team sessions as needed and provide full facilitation at the event, taking care of hosting, handovers and any session delivery.

HYBRID AND VIRTUAL EVENTS

Are you still going virtual? Or are you looking at hybrid events, for the best of both the face-to-face and online worlds?
​
You might risk losing energy and engagement with faceless presentations and no audience interaction. We take the principles of our face-to-face event design and facilitation and adapt them to the screen, making your team meetings, or even global conferences, engaging, participative and memorable, until you all can be in the same room again.

With decades of experience in event facilitation, corporate presentation and with a performance background, we'll host your hybrid or virtual event, providing personality, humour and, above all, energy, as well as seamless execution.

EVENT HOSTING AND FACILITATION

Have your meeting or event sorted, but looking for some help to make it run smoothly?
 
Hiring an external facilitator is particularly good for meetings where you need an unbiased eye- someone to shape the conversation, navigate tricky situations, ask the right questions, help you work better together, come to decisions, plan and strategise. For larger conferences and events, facilitators are invaluable in making the event go as planned- and run to time.

​Having a facilitator be your host or emcee takes the pressure of introductions, handovers and links between sessions out of your hands, as well as Q & As, interviews or even awards ceremonies.

“We were all delighted at how the day went and people are still talking about it, so that is ALWAYS a good sign. I truly believe having you there made a mountain of difference and that you did exactly what we asked and made the team feel collaborative.”
