Team workshops, team building & offsite facilitation
Meaningful experiences for teams to connect and grow
Looking for something more impactful than traditional team building? These interactive workshops help teams deepen trust, improve collaboration, celebrate successes, solve real challenges, and create a shared path forward. Ideal for team days, leadership offsites, kick-offs, retrospectives, and organizational development initiatives.
Collaborating Across Cultures: Intensive Team Workshop
Communication challenges aren’t always communication problems. Often, they’re different assumptions about how trust, feedback, decisions, and collaboration should work. Using Erin Meyer’s Culture Map framework, this full-day workshop helps teams understand those differences, reduce misunderstandings, and build stronger ways of working together across cultures, personalities, and locations. Teams leave with greater awareness of what helps or hinders collaboration, practical strategies for working across differences, and shared agreements that strengthen trust and performance.
Ideal for: International teams, remote and hybrid teams, cross-border collaboration, global leadership teams, and teams looking to strengthen trust, communication, and teamwork.
Includes:
– Team Culture Map assessment (up to 7 participants)
– Guided exploration of team insights
– Full-day facilitated workshop (remote or in person)
– Co-created team collaboration action plan
– Supporting learning resources
Emotional Intelligence Lab
Great teamwork isn’t tested when things are easy. It’s tested when expectations are unclear, pressure is high, feedback is uncomfortable, or relationships become strained. This coaching and development experience combines the Workplace EQ-i 2.0 emotional intelligence assessment with practical coaching to help individuals and teams better understand how they communicate, build trust, manage stress, handle conflict, make decisions, and work effectively with others.
Includes:

Workplace Big Five Team Discovery Lab
Every team is made up of people with different personalities, motivations, communication styles, and approaches to work. This development experience combines the Workplace Big Five assessment with facilitated discussion and coaching to help teams better understand how they communicate, make decisions, handle conflict, respond to change, and work together. By building greater self-awareness and understanding of others, teams can improve collaboration, strengthen relationships, and make better use of the diverse strengths and perspectives around them.

Working Genius Team Discovery
Work should challenge people, but it shouldn’t constantly drain them. This experience combines Patrick Lencioni’s Working Genius assessment with facilitated discussion and coaching to help teams understand which types of work naturally energize each person, where frustration may be showing up, and how work can be distributed more effectively.

VIA Character Strengths Team Discovery
People do their best work when they understand and use their strengths intentionally. This experience combines the VIA Character Strengths assessment with facilitated discussion and coaching to help teams discover the strengths that energize them, shape how they work with others, and contribute to team success.

Team Reflection & Retrospective Lab
When teams take time to reflect, they often discover that their biggest opportunities for growth have been there all along. This facilitated retrospective experience creates space to step back from day-to-day demands and make sense of the challenges, successes, lessons, and patterns that have shaped the team.

The Team Yearbook or Appreciation Book
Some of the most meaningful moments in a team’s journey never make it into project plans, presentations, or performance reports. This facilitated reflection and appreciation experience creates space for teams to recognize their accomplishments, celebrate the people behind the work, capture lessons learned, and acknowledge the moments that shaped them along the way.

Feedback & Difficult Conversations Lab
Most teams believe feedback is important. Far fewer have been taught how to give it well, receive it well, and use it to support growth without damaging trust. This facilitated learning and development experience combines practical feedback training with coaching, discussion, and hands-on practice to help teams build the confidence and skills needed for honest, constructive conversations.
Participants learn evidence-based principles for giving and receiving feedback, explore the barriers that often prevent people from speaking up, and practice approaches that make feedback feel more useful, respectful, and actionable.

Build Your Own Team Experience
The most impactful team experiences are often the ones designed around a real challenge, opportunity, or conversation rather than a pre-defined agenda. This fully customized workshop is built in partnership with you to create space for reflection, learning, alignment, and meaningful dialogue.

Drawing from coaching, facilitation, assessments, reflective exercises, team development practices, and practical action planning, we’ll create an engaging experience that helps participants learn from one another, deepen understanding, and turn insights into meaningful action.
