What Madrid teams book

Leadership days and retreats, creative team days and live moments for company events.

Leadership days and company retreats in Madrid

A Madrid leadership day or company retreat can train clear thinking under pressure, read the hidden rules of influence and power, or take leaders into silence and meditation away from the city, in Spanish or English, from an hour at your office to a week-long retreat.

A technology firm briefed us on a half-day on change for 30 leaders at a Madrid offsite.

  • 60 to 90 minutes5 to 10

    The team's clarity lab

    Servane trains five to ten leaders to think clearly together under pressure, with practical tools they use the same week.

  • 1 to 7 days5 to 100

    Silence and stillness retreat

    Paul guides leaders through silence, meditation, gentle breathwork and restorative movement, from a single day to a week near Madrid.

    With Paul

  • 3 to 5 hours8 to 12

    Beyond the board

    Natalia takes eight to twelve leaders through the hidden rules of influence and power, using real cases, metaphor and collective exercises.

Fitting a session into a Madrid gathering

Regional teams often fly into Madrid for a single afternoon. An influence lab of three to five hours carries the core of it and a clarity lab gives a small leadership group a working close, while a senior team staying longer can add a day of silence and meditation outside the city.

Hosts lead in Spanish and English, some also in French or Italian, at your office, a hotel or an offsite venue outside the city.

Our regional team is flying into Madrid for one afternoon: what can a facilitator do in four hours?

Four hours suits Natalia's lab on influence and power, which runs three to five hours for eight to twelve leaders, or Servane's clarity lab followed by Desire's human skills lab. Each runs at your office or hotel, in Spanish or English.

Can you run a leadership session for 30 people at our offsite venue?

Yes. Natalia's lab on influence and power runs for eight to twelve and Servane's clarity lab for five to ten, so 30 leaders rotate through both in parallel groups. Hosts come to the venue you have booked.

Do leadership sessions in Madrid run in Spanish and English?

Yes. Paul, Nuno and Desire all lead in Spanish and English, and some hosts also work in French or Italian, so a mixed regional team works in one language or the session switches between them.

Creative team building in Madrid that everyone joins

Madrid team days put everyone in the same game: a live mural painted together, a band formed on the spot by colleagues who have never played, or a playful group session for up to 120. Each runs at your office or a venue, for mixed teams of every seniority.

A consumer-goods group briefed us on a four-hour trust workshop for its team in Madrid.

  • 45 to 120 minutes5 to 12

    Team in tune

    Daniel turns five to twelve colleagues who have never played into a band, then records the song they make together.

  • 20 to 90 minutes5 to 100

    Live mural experience

    Lara, a fine artist and performer, paints a large mural live while your team watches it take shape, for five to a hundred guests.

    With Lara

  • Up to 90 minutes10 to 120

    Shubidubi

    Alejandro turns a room of ten to 120 colleagues into one playful group with a printed-sheet session full of movement.

Shaping a Madrid team day

Open a gathering with Shubidubi for the whole company, then give smaller teams the mural or a band session after lunch. Hosts can work in parallel for a large team, and a leadership group can break away for a clarity lab.

What is a creative team activity in Madrid that everyone joins, whatever their role?

Lara's live mural gives every colleague a brush and a part of one large painting, for five to a hundred people. Alejandro's Shubidubi session brings up to 120 into one playful group, so the CEO and the newest hire take part on equal terms.

Can a team building session work for a mixed-seniority, cross-functional group?

Yes. The live mural and Team in Tune both work best with mixed groups, because everyone contributes to one shared result, and Shubidubi gives a whole company of up to 120 the same playful start.

Live moments for Madrid events and client evenings

A Madrid company event or client evening can get every guest singing in an interactive sing-along, teach the room its first flamenco steps, or slow down over a mindful wine tasting. Hosts lead in Spanish and English, from an intimate client table to a full company gathering.

  • Sing-along icebreaker

    Annabel, a musician and community builder, gets every guest singing together, a warm way to break the ice at a gathering or client evening.

    With Annabel

  • Flamenco for your guests

    Marina, a flamenco artist and educator, leads up to thirty guests through flamenco movement, rhythm and body percussion.

    With Marina

  • Winefulness

    Gabriela turns a wine tasting into two hours of slowing down and real conversation for six to fifteen guests.

Formats for a Madrid event

A sing-along breaks the ice at the start of a gathering, a flamenco session of 30 to 60 minutes brings a welcome drink or a dinner to its feet, and Winefulness gives a small client group two hours before dinner.

Can you bring live music or a performer to our company event in Madrid?

Yes. Paola performs in Spanish, English and Italian in some of Madrid's leading hotels, and Marina leads guests through a flamenco session of movement, rhythm and body percussion. Both adapt to a welcome drink, a dinner or a full gala.

What could we offer visiting clients for an evening in Madrid?

Gabriela's Winefulness gives six to fifteen guests two hours of mindful tasting and conversation, and a flamenco session or a sing-along turns a larger client evening into a memorable night.

The people behind Madrid sessions

Madrid sessions are led by people with distinctive careers: a flamenco artist who teaches rhythm and expression, a meditation teacher and university professor, a trilingual singer from the city's leading hotels, the founder of a mindfulness company, a leadership coach at home on keynote stages and an arts practitioner who builds teams through theatre.
