In Detail

Strategy Safari works whether you’re shaping the direction of an entire organisation, or helping one team clarify its contribution to the bigger picture.

Most strategy sessions fall into two traps:

  • Endless debate with no decisions
  • Vague vision with no path forward

Strategy Safari avoids both. It uses structured frameworks to surface insight and sharp facilitation to drive action. It gives your team the space and tools to make smart, forward-looking decisions, without getting lost in complexity.

This workshop works when:

  • You’re heading into a new strategic cycle or planning year
  • You’re facing external change and need to respond clearly
  • You’ve got too many ideas and not enough focus
  • You’re overdue a step back from day-to-day delivery
  • You want to challenge assumptions and explore fresh thinking

It’s designed for leadership teams who want clarity, alignment and strategic momentum, not just another brainstorm.

Organisation-wide strategy

Ideal for senior leadership teams to:

  • Align around external trends, risks and opportunities
  • Explore different strategic futures
  • Prioritise focus areas across departments or business units
  • Set clear direction for the next 12–36 months

Team-level strategy

Perfect for functional or departmental teams to:

  • Clarify their purpose and role in the wider business
  • Translate high-level strategy into day-to-day priorities
  • Spot delivery risks or missed opportunities
  • Get proactive about where they’re heading, not just reactive

Whatever the level, the outcome is the same: sharper thinking, better choices, and a shared understanding of where to focus.

Not more theory. Not a long strategy doc no one reads. Just focused, facilitated thinking that moves your strategy forward.
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.”

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.

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.
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.

Can we use this to shape the whole company strategy?

Yes, and it works just as well at the team or department level. Whether you’re aligning a leadership team on company direction or helping a functional team clarify how they contribute to the bigger picture, the core tools flex to your context.

Is it suitable for non-strategy people?

Absolutely. The tools are clear, the facilitation is structured, and the aim is practical thinking, not theory. Everyone contributes, whether they’re strategic thinkers by nature or not. This works best when you bring a mix of voices to the table.

Will this solve all our deepest problems?

No, but it will surface (most of) them, name them, and help you start dealing with them. Think of it as a reset button: it gives you fresh momentum, stronger relationships, and a clear path forward. Ongoing work might be needed, but this gets the ball rolling.

How much preparation is needed?

Very little from your side. I’ll run a short discovery call to tailor the session to your goals, and I’ll bring everything we need on the day. Just bring your team, a clear calendar, and an open mind.

We’re too busy for a whole day away.

If the team’s under pressure, that’s exactly when you need this. A day to reset and refocus saves weeks of wasted effort, misunderstandings, and avoidable tension. You’ll come back sharper, clearer, and more aligned.

Can we add our own bits to the agenda?

The short answer: no. The workshop’s been refined over dozens of sessions to create flow, build trust and deliver outcomes. If there’s something specific going on with your team, I’ll adapt what we discuss, but not the structure.

Can’t we just run this ourselves?

You could. But it’s hard to have open, honest conversations when someone in the team is also trying to facilitate.

People hold back. Issues stay hidden. Having me in the room means everyone can fully participate, and I’ll make sure the tricky stuff gets talked about constructively.

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.
