Fantastic Virtual Meetings, Workshops & People Engagement Sessions

Level up your virtual meetings, workshops, trainings, calls, webinars and online events with our team of expert facilitators.

With more and more teams working remotely and connecting across locations we think it’s super important to make sure that every colleague involved benefits from engaging, social, relevant and productive online meeting experiences.

If you’re a novice or untrained virtual facilitator it can be challenging to work the tech, keep everyone interested and contributing and create as close to an in-person experience as possible.

And virtual sessions are different from face-to-face ones because…

… there’s less visible body language to ‘read’

… it’s so easy for delegates to do other stuff at the same time as the session is going on

… some people find online sessions just plain boring – especially if they already spend a lot of their day in online meetings

…some team members can find it intimidating to speak out or be seen on camera when there’s a screen, especially when the session is being recorded

That’s where we come in!

We will either show you how to virtually facilitate your sessions or facilitate your sessions for you using Zoom or Teams online meeting software.

Our facilitators (Jo North and Paul Slater) will work with you in advance to get a really great understanding of the objectives of your session and design a structure and format to meet your specific, individual requirements.

We’ll use our innovative facilitation methodology to help your team create, connect and collaborate for results.

We’ll lead the digital facilitation process so that everyone can get involved, focus on the core content, feel part of and buy into the final solution.

High-Impact Online Sessions That Actually Deliver

We design and lead virtual sessions that are just as focused, engaging and productive as in-person events. Whether you need to run an innovation sprint, align your senior team, bring stakeholders together or get traction on a tough challenge, we make it happen, online.

No dry slide decks. No “can everyone go on mute?” Just sharp, well-run sessions that get people talking, thinking and deciding—wherever they are.

What We Offer Virtually

Everything we do in-person, we also deliver online. And we do it super well.

Innovation Sprint Facilitation

Remote doesn’t have to mean slow. Our virtual innovation sprints are fast-paced, practical and built around your goals. We use delegate-friendly interactive tools and breakout collaboration to create energy and momentum from the start.

Stakeholder Engagement & Collaboration

We bring diverse groups together—businesses, public sector, not-for-profits, academia, communities—and facilitate focused online sessions that align interests and build shared plans of action.

Expert Chairing & Facilitation

When a virtual meeting really matters, we’ll lead it for you. From high-stakes board sessions to sensitive cross-sector discussions, we provide the structure and confidence to get the outcomes you need.

Sustainable Innovation Workshops

Led by Dr Jo North, author of Leading Sustainable Innovation, these sessions help you embed sustainability into innovation and strategy—even when the team is working remotely.

Mission, Vision & Values Workshops

Get to clarity, fast. We facilitate online workshops that help your people shape or refresh purpose and direction, with outputs you can actually use.

Strategic Planning & Business Model Innovation

We design virtual strategy sessions that cut through noise and help you move forward—whether you’re exploring growth options, refining your business model, or rethinking direction.

Team Building & Innovation Culture

Online doesn’t have to mean disconnected. We facilitate energising team development sessions that help build trust, collaboration and a stronger culture of innovation.

Co-Creation & Community Engagement

We bring structure and pace to virtual sessions where communities, partners and stakeholders are co-creating solutions, shaping services or sharing insight.

Design Sprints, Service Development & Testing

We use real-time collaboration to facilitate virtual sprints that take your team from problem to prototype—focused, energised and outcome-driven.

Tools We Use

We use the tech that works best for your team and goals. That might include:

  • Zoom or Microsoft Teams for live sessions and breakout rooms
  • Miro for whiteboarding and group thinking
  • Mentimeter or Slido for live polls and interaction
  • Custom toolkits to help participants prepare, engage and follow through

Why It Works

  • We design for engagement—not just content
  • We run high-energy sessions with structure and clear outcomes
  • We help people collaborate and think differently, even online
  • We adapt to your tech, your people and your pace
  • We bring the same level of professionalism, clarity and momentum you’d expect in person
