3-Hour to Full-Day Workshops | High-Impact | Tailored Delivery
These 2-hour to full-day workshops are designed to spark reflection, start meaningful conversations, and build awareness around the behaviours that shape your workplace interactions— while we won’t shift everything in a day, we will surface some of the blind spots and unseen dynamics holding your team back — and your people will leave with fresh insights and practical actions they can apply straight away.
Perfect for PD days, offsites, or conference breakout sessions, our Culture Spark workshops are a great entry point for teams wanting to explore new ideas, reconnect, or strengthen a specific capability.
Team Building Transformed —
with Horses
Half-Day to Full-Day Workshops | Experiential | Flagship Team Experience
Team Building Transformed is a one-day experiential workshop that gives your team a chance to step away from the usual environment and experience leadership, communication, and collaboration in action.
Working with horses — no riding involved — teams discover how their behaviours, presence, and relational dynamics show up in real time uncertainty! The horses respond honestly and immediately, revealing the often unseen patterns and our blind spots that influences performance and how your team functions under pressure. The horses make the unconscious, conscious.
It’s practical. It's profound. It's connecting. It's Authentic.
It’s emotionally intelligent. It's Leadership-In-Action. And it’s deeply impactful.
Culture Shift Program
Customised | 3-Stage Framework | Leadership & Team Focused
This isn’t just a one-off workshop. Culture Shift is a longer-term program delivered through a tailored series of workshops, team development sessions, and coaching touch points that work together to shift how people communicate, lead, and collaborate across your business.
We partner with your team over time—working closely with leaders and staff to identify key challenges, blind spots, and opportunities for real change. Together, we grow your people and co-create a culture that supports stronger relationships, increased engagement, better morale, and improved team performance.
When people are clear on expectations, feel safe to speak up, and know how to work with each other’s differences, things change—trust builds, retention improves, and accountability starts to show up in the day-to-day.
