Whole System Events

These are large interactive and participatory events that run over one or two days, to bring representatives of a whole system together to explore, resolve and re-invent ways of working more effectively together. This includes large events with up to 500 people, or more focused smaller events with critical parts of a system.

Intensive Strategic Workshops

More focused on leadership groups, these bring leaders and managers together to work in a focused and intense way to resolve current strategic issues over the period of half a day. Boot camps and growth labs are particular examples of this kind of work.
