Management teams have a vital role in translating and executing company strategy into local objectives and action plans, but everyone looks for strong, visible leadership from the top. Giving the people in your organisation a clear vision and a compelling path to follow helps them to make the right choices when they are busy back at work. If the leadership team of an organisation do not set out a clear vision for people to follow they’ll probably make one up!
There are times when you need to gather all your people together in a room, so they can hear the leadership vision from the horse’s mouth, the team can then ask their questions, discuss what it means with their colleagues and then provide feedback or ideas of their own. Doing this with a large group of individuals can be challenging and stressful as this is one occasion when you and the top leadership team need to be at your best: bold, inspirational, clear and consistent and completely aligned.

Event Design
Defining and building the content, formulating the structure, the right balance of speakers, the facilitated workshops and inspiration can make the difference between an outstanding and memorable event as opposed to just another company conference.
Is conference design and facilitation a regular headache for you and your leadership team? Would you like a successful repeatable formula that fits with your company culture and rhythm of business that you can use time and time again long after we have left?
With our background in leadership, teamwork, coaching and communications, we understand how important it is to set the right tone at conferences as well as smaller team events. Clear objectives, great event design, strong content and inspiring speakers are the hallmarks of a Merriweather -organised event. Whatever it is you’re planning, Merriweather can make your events more effective and deliver a winning spirit within the team.
Experienced Conference Organisers
Our team here at Merriweather has been delivering events and conferences for large FTSE 500 organisations around the world for over a decade. All our coaches have real business experience, so we can help shape and articulate vital business messages and make the links between good communication and active delivery of change on the ground.
You might be looking to run a project kick-off meeting, a mid-year review, or an implementation meeting for a company-wide change programme. It may involve the sales team, a business unit or the whole organisation. Scale and destination don’t faze the team at Merriweather; we regularly turn around the content design and facilitation in as little as 30 days.
Planning For A Successful Conference
We’ll work with you and the leadership team to identify the goals for the event – not just what happens on the day, but what we want people to know, think and do when they are back at work. We’ll help with the messaging and the content, we’ll design the interactive sessions and make sure there’s plenty of opportunity for involvement from the delegates.
As well as supporting your own leaders in driving the conference agenda we will provide inspirational speaker training for those featuring on the agenda, direction on developing a compelling and aspirational message (feedback and consulting), full facilitation and coaching from planning through to delivery and finally the follow up. We can also supply external speakers to complement the conference messaging to further inspire others to act.
You can be sure your people will leave the event with a clear understanding of the key event messages, helping them to make the right choices when they are busy back at work.
