In Detail

Gain a clear understanding of what strategy is and how to use it, practical tools you can apply straight away, and renewed confidence to make better choices about where to focus next.

See strategy in a new light

For many people, strategy feels abstract or reserved for senior leadership. This workshop keeps it simple and practical, showing that strategy is a series of connected choices anyone can make with confidence.

You'll learn how to look ahead, test your assumptions and make better long-term decisions in your own role.

We focus on practical tools and techniques drawn from real strategy work, helping you see patterns, find focus and act with clarity.

It's designed for anyone who wants to build strategic confidence, whether you are a manager, team leader or specialist ready to move from delivery to shaping direction.

What you’ll learn

The day blends reflection, learning and hands-on application.

  • Understand what strategy really means and how it guides everyday choices
  • Build confidence to look beyond short-term delivery and plan for the future
  • Scan your internal and external landscape to spot shifts, risks and opportunities
  • Learn to turn complex challenges into clear, practical “How might we …” questions
  • Prioritise what will make the biggest impact and commit to action
You’ll demystify strategy through simple frameworks, practise analysing real challenges, and leave with a set of clear decisions and next steps for your own work.
TESTIMONIAL
“Creative Huddle ran an offsite for our board to define our strategy for the coming years. It was incredibly helpful to have a skilled facilitator to help us analyse our business, clarify our thinking and challenge us to make decisions on our future direction. Everything was clearly summarised in a concise report afterwards, which helped us maintain momentum and take tangible outcomes from the day.”

Rate your team

Take our Team High Performance Scorecard for a clear snapshot of how your team is doing across the ten factors that matter most for high performance.
You’ll rate your team against ten statements. Read each statement carefully and decide how strongly you agree or disagree, giving each a score out of 5.

For each one, you’ll get instant feedback based on your score – so you can see exactly where you're strong, where you're vulnerable, and where to focus next.

About our workshops

The informality of our workshops enables participants to relax, express themselves freely and find common ground with others. This lends itself perfectly to ideation and team-building by encouraging positive interactions and idea sharing.

What exactly is a Talkshop?

We're glad you asked! Simply put, a Talkshop is a cross between a talk and a workshop. They're short, punchy, thought-provoking sessions. We take a key concept and explain it clearly, then help your team explore it together to understand how it can help them in their work.

FAQ

Extra details about this workshop.
Can this work with hybrid or remote teams?

It works just as well virtually, with tools adapted for online delivery. In fact, remote teams often benefit most from building a shared understanding of strengths, as these things are harder to spot when you’re not co-located.

Do you provide a venue?

No. You book the venue, I bring the workshop. I can give you pointers if you need help finding a good spot. Just make sure it’s a space where people can think clearly, talk openly and move around a bit.

How many people can take part?

We usually recommend between 6 and 20 people, depending on how interactive you want the session to be. Larger groups can be accommodated with breakout structures.

Is this for leadership teams only?

No, it works for any team that’s trying to collaborate, deliver, and improve. I’ve run it for exec teams, project teams, departments, and new teams just starting out. If the team works together regularly, it’s a good fit.

Will this work for my company?

We have run this process many times with a wide variety of organisations. We have also received positive feedback from leaders who have used the tools and approach featured.
