Our Approach
Discover how we transform leadership team development through immersive escape rooms and other captivating techniques to create powerful experiences.
Flagship Experience
Our half-day immersive leadership team development program, originally developed at Google, combines principles from experiential learning, game theory, and organizational psychology to create experiences that are both engaging and effective.
By immersing our clients in carefully designed challenges, we create psychologically safe environments to practice critical workplace skills, observe team dynamics, and develop new strategies for success.
The challenge of an escape room reveals authentic behaviors and communication patterns that might otherwise take months to surface in a traditional work environment.

Frequently Asked Questions
How is this different from typical training programs?
Typical development programs tend to focus on lectures or facilitated discussions in an abstract manner or classroom setting. Our program is immersive, and allows our facilitators to observe team behaviours in real time while teaching and reinforcing targeted learning outcomes. Our unique environments create a memorable experience that participants will always remember.
How is this different from commercial escape room team building exercises?
Commercial escape rooms are built primarily with entertainment and puzzle solving in mind. Our rooms are not designed to stump participants with overly difficult challenges, but rather to help participants experience specific targeted learning outcomes. Our escape room design philosophy starts with the outcome in mind, and we work backwards to create a room that meets our goals. Of course, we ensure our room themes are appropriate for corporate clients while avoiding jump scares and common escape room themes involving scary or horror elements.
What size teams can you accommodate?
Each escape room can accommodate 10 participants. When we open additional rooms in the near future, we will be able to manage multiple groups of 10 and rotate them through different rooms. Additionally, we have lounge facilities available for supplemental activities on offer.
How do you measure success?
We establish clear metrics at the beginning of our engagement based on your specific goals. These might include pre and post-training assessments, workplace behavior observations, project outcome improvements, or employee satisfaction scores. We will work with you to determine the most meaningful measures for your organization.
