In a world of virtual working, time spent in-person with your executive teams and Board needs to be well spent.

Using face-to-face facilitation is a great way to maximise that time, but finding the right match isn’t easy - deciding who to work with is so important. 

We all know that face-to-face sessions are valuable opportunities that deepen trust, unlock performance and help you to make the right decisions, decisions that lead to clear and actionable outcomes. It’s something we, as leaders have to  get right.

At ROOM, listening, stimulating discussion and supporting planning is our everyday. We’re a team of international facilitators, and as past and present Senior Directors, CEOs and Chairs, we’ve all sat in your seat.  

As a group we work with you to design and structure effective group sessions that drive meaningful progress, build momentum, and spark transformation, helping you to make the most of your time together. Whatever you need to work on (tackling a complex problem, strengthening team connections, or strategically planning), whoever you need to involve (Boards, exec teams, or cross-organisational groups) we bring decades of experience to help you move  things forward.

OUR OFFER

When you're in the ROOM with us, you're not just attending a workshop—you’re experiencing a powerful, transformative session that leads to lasting change. Whatever you’re looking to work on we’ve a ROOM for you.

This one-day, offsite experience for Executive Teams or Boards to reach a verdict on a business-critical issue. We’ll support you in defining the question, preparing for the session, and then facilitating the day with laser focus. The goal? A confident, collective decision that leaves you with clarity and momentum, and moves your business forward.

We’re always looking to help you discover what changes you need to make within your business, using a coaching approach to plan actions. Our sessions are built around a strong, tried and tested structure, backed up by purposeful processes, tools and activities.

 

Working alongside you and the people around you, we take an optimistic and creative approach to sessional design, ensuring we’re all on the same page - well before the big day.
