Spark Performance™ High Impact Team Offsite

Q: Why can't we simply do a traditional team development program?

Of course, you can. However, our g ame-based learning approach in Miki Island workshops creates a psychologically safe environment where teams can practice the behaviors of Stage 4 teams effectively. This approach fosters active engagement, real-time problem-solving, and experiential learning, enabling teams to develop and internalize advanced teamwork skills in a dynamic and supportive setting.

High Impact

This isn’t your typical offsite with slides and polite small talk. From the moment your team walks in, the energy shifts - focused engagement, meaningful tension, and real conversations about what drives performance.

We kick things off with Miki Island, a high-energy simulation that gets everyone thinking, moving, and collaborating with purpose.

No passive observers - everyone’s in, and every moment counts.

Then we slow things down with sharp debriefs and practical discussions that surface what’s working, what’s not, and what needs to shift to help your team achieve more with less.

- ✅ Sharpen team focus
- ✅ Eliminate energy leaks and friction
- ✅ Boost collaboration and execution
- ✅ Align around what really matters

⚙️ The SPARK Framework™

A practical framework to simplify, prioritize, and take focused action that drives results.

The path to achieving more with less starts by changing how your team thinks, focuses, and works together.

S – Scan: Observe current ways of working to surface what’s working and what’s not.

P – Prioritize: Identify high-impact opportunities to make smarter decisions about where to invest time, resources, and energy.

A – Align: Get everyone moving in the same direction - with clarity on roles, goals, and expectations.

R – Remove: Eliminate what’s no longer adding value - meetings, habits, or processes.

K – Kickstart: Turn insights into action. Build momentum through small, impactful changes that stick.

Together, these steps help teams focus on what matters most - and spark the shift toward lasting, high-impact performance.

🏝️ Powered by the Miki Island™ Simulation

Immersive team simulation designed to spark lasting improvements in focus and efficiency.

At the core of Spark Performance™ is the Miki Island™ simulation - a fast-paced, hands-on experience where teams uncover how they really work under pressure.

Teams often face hidden blockers: unclear roles, lack of focus, wasted effort. This simulation brings those dynamics to the surface - and gives teams a chance to fix them in real time.

Played over 2 or 3 iterative rounds, teams get to experiment, refocus, and improve. With each round, they build stronger alignment, sharper decision-making, and better use of the resources they already have.

Through targeted debriefs, teams walk away with practical strategies to achieve more with less, unlocking focus, ownership, and a renewed drive for high performance.

FAQ?

What sets Miki Island workshops apart from other team development programs?

Miki Island workshops distinguish themselves through immersive gameplay, research based methodology as well as data-driven insights from comprehensive team assessments. This allows to guarantee a focus on creating sustainable, high-performance team cultures that drive tangible business results.

How long is a typical Miki Island workshop?

A Miki Island workshop will last for 2,5h to 4h. Depending on the objectives set for your team, the program can then be enhanced to 2-day or 3-6 month team coaching journey. The more we can work with your team, the better the results!

Why can't we simply do a traditional team development program?

Of course, you can. However, our game-based learning approach in Miki Island workshops creates a psychologically safe environment where teams can practice the behaviors of Stage 4 teams effectively. This approach fosters active engagement, real-time problem-solving, and experiential learning, enabling teams to develop and internalize advanced teamwork skills in a dynamic and supportive setting.

What happens during a debrief session?

Debrief sessions allow teams to reflect on their performance and behaviours in the game, discuss how it relates to their every day life, and identify key takeaways for improvement.

Does that work even with senior executives?

Funny enough, we often see senior executives on the back-sit at the beginning of a Miki Island workshop. Now when the game starts, people (and c-suite) forget about their default leadership behaviours and engage fully in the experience.

This engagement and commitment guarantees and allows for great conversations and debriefs at the end, making it as effective for C-suite senior executives as it can be for more junior team members.

The key difference relies more on the depth of the conversations in the debrief and business application workshops than the game itself.

Are Miki Island workshops customizable for specific team goals?

Yes, Miki Island workshops can be tailored to address specific team challenges, goals, and industry contexts to maximize relevance and impact. The team assessment and diagnostic is a key element that allows for customization.

What's the maximum number of people?

We have had team offsites sessions with as many as 500 people (both virtually and face-to-face). We also work regularly with senior executive teams of 6-8 people. The results are consistent with highly engaged, challenged and impacted team members ready to build their High Performing Teams back at work!
