Executive Meeting Facilitation

Make meetings with other leaders and your direct reports highly engaging and productive.

We help executives transform their annual strategy retreats, vision sessions, quarterly updates, and other important meetings by creating the structures and interactive experiences for better conversations, connection, and alignment.

Our Approach

  • Full Participation

    We take charge to help everyone fully participate because you can’t run a meeting and be a participant in a meeting at the same time.

  • Design and Improvisation

We work with leaders to make a plan and keep the meeting flowing, while reacting to what emerges in the moment.

  • Experiences

    We bring engaging, effective, and joyful experiences, activties, and structures to both in-person and virtual meetings.
