Business Strategy Sessions in Northern Ireland

Play powered strategy sessions

Lead with vision. Shape the future

At WayMaker for Business, we believe a strategy session should spark energy not stifle it. Our facilitators use creative methods, including LEGO® Serious Play®, to guide teams through meaningful conversations that lead to clear, practical outcomes.

Whether your organisation needs a business strategy session, a leadership communication workshop, or a coaching strategy session, we help you move beyond traditional consultancy models. Each strategy workshop is designed to reconnect your team with its purpose, surface new ideas, and build plans that work in practice, not just on paper.

With experience delivering business strategy workshops across Northern Ireland and the UK, we focus on making strategy engaging, people-driven, and effective.

  • Preparing for growth or transformation

strategy workshops, our facilitation helps you move forward with confidence and a clear plan of action.

What did others say?

HIGHLY recommend Eileen’s Lego Serious Play!  We brought Eileen in to help a consortium of five partners work through future strategy.  To be honest there were a lot of sceptics in the room with a diverse group of individuals with differing levels of creativity, curiosity and even one Lego hater!  We realised our inner five-year-olds and worker through a series of complex issues all whilst having lots of fun! The power of Lego and play is WELL researched. We had the most fantastic, liberating and consolidating day.

The simple questions can be the hardest for small businesses to explain, such as what their core identity and their value proposition is, but these questions lie at the heart of an innovation led approach, and we require new tools to help businesses visualise and contextualise what the possible answers are. Smart Play is just such a tool. Using LEGO Serious Play methodology, it helps people and businesses build their answers in 3D! This powerful approach allows people to think in a different way, and help them utilise their creativity to define and understand their business in a way which may be new to them and allows for a more focused strategic approach.
