We design and deliver interactive experiences for leaders and teams to escape the gravity of everyday work and realise breakthrough business outcomes.
Connect.
We bring people together to fast-track the building of trust, tribe, and teamwork
As humans, we are driven by an innate need to belong to a group, a tribe, a team. Building that sense of belonging takes work, but it’s some of the most valuable work your organization can invest in. Research tells us your people are the most powerful predictor of organisational success, both propelling progress or slowing momentum.
It is for this reason we put people at the centre of everything we do. We build highly engaged, trusting teams, with robust relationships that unlock unimagined business value.
COLLABORATE.
We engage audiences to solve your organisation’s most pressing challenges
Don’t be accused of running boring meetings ever again. We design and deliver inspiring, immersive, and inclusive meeting experiences to tackle your team’s biggest issues and opportunities.
Think high-impact facilitation techniques, grounded in neuroscience, anchored in adventure metaphors, and all designed to accelerate your outcomes.
COMMIT.
We ensure everyone feels accountability and ownership of the path forward.
It all comes down to commitment–100% commitment to each other and the plan moving forward. That is what aspire to achieve in every engagement.
We work to ensure everyone is not only onboard, but has absolute clarity on ‘who does what, by when’. Anything less means delays, debate, and disruption. And that’s not what we’re about.

Redefining purpose, mission, values & culture

Here's what people say
The Sparring Partners have been a tremendous asset to our teams here at Microsoft. Their insights, approach, and presence combine to help drive highly impactful and effective engagements.
They have worked successfully with some of our most senior leaders in both individual and team settings, and have stepped just as easily onto the stage to lead multi-day engagements with very large-group audiences.
They are excellent coach and brainstorming partners, think systemically about event/content/team effectiveness design, and collaborate extremely well across both internal and external stakeholder groups.
