What we do
We work with organisations and project teams who want to work collaboratively and need to understand each other better so you can generate creative ideas. We use our process facilitation method to design a process so your event runs to time, is productive and gets everyone involved.
We will help you when you have got stuck as a team and you need someone neutral to get you back on track. We will actively support you to reach consensus and get everyone engaged with a shared vision for your future work plans. We work across the UK and Europe, running purposeful and effective conferences, workshops, events and meetings.
With imagination, creative design and purposeful structuring, virtual facilitation offers a way for us all to meet, to talk, to share ideas and to work out ways of working for the future. We use video conferencing and interactive whiteboards, voting tools, and digital pinboards to support the connection between people and develop the warmth and community that used to involve hours of travel. Virtual facilitation offers us a way of connecting without the high carbon cost of face to face events.

If you are going to consult with the public, your employees or wider stakeholders you want to be sure that all the views are captured. Sometimes only the loudest voices get heard in consultation sessions. This can result in really bad decisions being made! For critical consultations a professional facilitator will make sure that decisions are based on valid evidence and are a true reflection of the opinions of your important stakeholders.
Do your meetings seem to last too long and with too little result? Do you have away days that never address the real issues? Would you benefit from a neutral person getting involved to work with you to get your meetings to be time efficient and engaging?
Our team development sessions have a dramatic positive effect on a team’s performance and will lead to organisational success. What makes these events successful is the way we work collaboratively with you to design something that is exactly right for your needs:
