Boosting collaboration for 10 years

Our approach to collaboration
A team is greater than the sum of its parts.
We’re called “Creative Huddle” because that’s our vision of a really successful facilitated session: team-based, high energy events of any size that help people collaborate effectively by generating ideas, solving problems, sharing opinions and making decisions.
People seem to like the name – a Creative Huddle implies togetherness, trust and of course creativity. It’s all about helping you think and work better, together.
Team-based
Get your team together to harness their collective strengths and perform at their best. We’ll help you build team trust, cohesion and communication and get everyone working together to deliver high-calibre results.
High-energy
Our meetings, workshops and conferences are nothing like the boring brainstorms and maddening meetings many people are subjected to every day. We keep the energy high to build motivation, momentum and dynamic ideas and solutions.
Results-focused
No more unproductive brainstorms, no more meetings that fail to get through the whole agenda, no more conferences where the content is immediately forgotten. We know that results and outcomes matter, so we always design with this in mind.
Creative Huddle worked alongside our creative director to build a highly engaging session that filled our leaders with ideas and inspiration. I’d highly recommend Creative Huddle – they’re easy to work with, know their stuff and are passionate about what they do.

How do we work?
Contact us to tell us about your objectives. We’ll listen to your brief and ask you some clarifying questions, then get back to you with a bespoke proposal.
Tailored to you
We’ll work closely with you to understand your team dynamics and the nuances of your project. We’ll talk you through our recommendations as a result, and you’ll have the chance to ask as many questions as you like and guide us through your vision of what you want to achieve. No two assignments are the same.
On your terms
If you have a suitable space, we can hold your event wherever you like. Or, some clients ask us to suggest a creative venue from our extensive database of great spaces. Whilst we might make recommendations depending on your brief, our events can be held at any time of day, for any number of people, and for any length of time.
A collective effort
One of the best things about a facilitated event is that they enable the team leader to get fully involved as a participant, and this is the reason many clients give for getting us involved. By inviting us in to design the session and facilitate it, everyone can contribute equally and harness the collective creativity and brainpower of the team.
