Create more meaningful moments

Create the ‘had-to-be-there’ experiences that inspire, educate and empower the people who matter most.

Explore

You’re seeking something

Memorable

You want to offer something innovative, memorable, and dynamic without breaking the bank or burning resources.

Different

You know your audience is seeking something more meaningful, but what does that mean beyond yet another boring Zoom webinar or flat-pack panel session?

Convenient

You want to offer your people an experience they’ll value, but you don’t have the bandwidth to create this by yourself (and why would you?)

Inspiring

You notice people seem to be struggling for inspiration and lack room to move, but it’s hard to pinpoint exactly what the issue is.

But there are still things on your mind…

Inside
  1. How do we create team gatherings that valuable, meaningful, and great fun?
  2. What upskilling opportunities can we offer that feel dynamic and personalized?
  3. What can we do to make meetings and workshops more engaging and interactive?
Outside
  1. What can we do to create a best-in-class live event for customers?
  2. I know the standard conference format is outdated, but what else is possible?
  3. How do we offer our audience something that truly stands out?

Valid questions? Absolutely.
Easy answers? Not really.

We believe that in today’s networked world, by far the greatest value comes from time spent in ‘third spaces’: places like workshops, conferences, off-sites, summits, and co-locations.

Whether people are coming together in-person or connecting digitally, they’re seeking something more purposeful and interesting than what’s come before. These third spaces are where the answers begin to emerge.

At the center of these spaces are intentional interactions - and thus creating the best possible environments for these to happen.

The best offer structure plus creativity; space for exploration, yet with a clear focus on what matters most. These environments are where truly magical things can happen.

But here’s the catch: creating them isn’t as simple as putting some snacks in a conference room, or adding an agenda to a Zoom meeting.

It takes something more.

Wavetable is here to help you enter this new realm of opportunity and possibility - and to do so in ways that are unique, aligned, and unforgettable.

Want to level up your team right away?

It’s time for a Wavetable Lab.

You know your team would benefit from more opportunities to build new skills, connect more deeply, and get in sync.

And in a world where it’s good business to do more with less, you want a solution that’s high on impact without the high price tag.

Wavetable Labs are interactive, high-grade workshop sessions that plug directly into your team’s needs and workflow.

“After almost two years of getting used to working remotely we needed some inspiration on how to think differently, motivate ourselves and approach challenges in new ways.

And Wavetable's Learning Lab did just that! Interactive, informative and fun (yes, really) the workshop changed our team processes for the better.”
Holly Fraser / Editor-in-Chief, WePresent/WeTransfer
01

Our suite of five Labs focus on critical work skills - including communication, storytelling, collaboration, and productivity. 

02

Labs are short form, interactive team sessions that are designed to meet you where you are: online, in-person or hybrid.

03

Each Lab is packed with tools, frameworks and methods that can be applied right away. 

04

Labs are available as singular 3-hour or 1-day sessions, or deeper-dive Micro Programs - 1 week sprints complete with dedicated office hours and coaching from our team. 

3 simple steps.
Choose, Plug, and Play.

Awareness + Collaboration

Get your team aligned, in sync, and inspired.
The challenge

- You’re frustrated at inefficient ways of working

- Ideation feels stale

- Ineffective or confusing feedback within the team

The experience

- In this Lab, your team will discover new ways of building self (and team!) awareness by exploring best practices, tools, and frameworks to make any meeting more efficient and effective.

- Participants will try out different feedback methods by building their unique riff on Cards Against Humanity (awesome, right?) and prototyping new ways to take on their work based on a live brief.

The outcomes

After this Lab, your people will be able to:

1. Better understand their own needs and working styles, as well as those around them

2. Design and lead collaborative meetings that are productive, engaging and generative

3. Work together as an energized and inspired team

Atoms + Eights

Unlock innovation through the power of inspired, peer-driven storytelling.
The challenge

- The vibe in the team can feel flat and 2-dimensional

- You’re looking for more dynamic and creative ideas for projects

- People aren’t bringing their unique magic into their work

The experience

- This Lab focuses on team connection, diversity & generating innovative ideas.

- We'll start exploring story crafting by atomizing mini stories about ourselves, ideating on top of them, and remixing these ideas into something fresher still.

- We’ll then apply these tools to a live brief - rapidly ideating & prototyping unexpected concepts

The outcomes

After this Lab, your people will be able to:

- Take inspiration from the edges of their business to make something new and surprising (new wine, old oak)

- Unlock new ideas, possibilities and paths forward

- Build deeper connection and understanding across the team

File under: Team Connection, Collaboration, Diversity, Innovation, Ideation, Creativity

Design + Deliver (a Narrative)

Elevate your team’s skills in creating compelling stories, pitches and presentations.
The challenge

- There’s a lack of presence or polish in presentations

- Meetings can feel stilted and inefficient

- Valuable work isn’t shown in its best light

- There’s a constraint on who’s able to step up for important pitch sessions

The experience

- In this highly interactive and hands-on Lab, we’ll elevate teams’ communication skills by helping them tell compelling stories that move the needle

- We'll explore the mechanics of how design and deliver top-notch presentations, and facilitate and lead an engaging experience for any audience - online or in-person.

- Whether participants are seasoned sellers or taking their first steps into storytelling, this Lab will give them the skills and confidence to go to the next level.

The outcomes

After this Lab, your people will be able to:

- Build stories and narratives using the art of storytelling, and understand how it can be used to communicate ideas, build relationships, and inspire action.

- Develop effective content and presentations that can be deployed online or in-person

- Communicate with confidence and assertiveness while embracing their unique quirks.

How we learn: Inside & Out

Be responsive to change, embrace adaptability, and feel equipped to learn quickly and effectively.
The challenge

- Information exchange is inefficient

- Communications aren’t landing - inside and outside the team

- There’s a handbrake on team dynamics and agility

The experience

- In this Lab we’ll dive into the art and science of how we learn and synthesize information.

- You’ll discover how to become a life-long-learner, and stay organized, focused and effective.

- You’ll also learn how to inspire, teach and elevate yourself and your peers through active, experiential, game-based, and problem-based learning approaches.

The outcomes

After this Lab, your people will be able to:

- Feel set for success as life-long-learners ready to adapt, grow and solve complex challenges

- Create a personal knowledge set up that’s organized, focused, and effective

Tempo: Live Scoping

Access the thought partnership, structure, and clarity you need to bring high-impact initiatives to life.
The challenge

- You know you have projects that deserve to exist in the world, but you don’t have the bandwidth or headspace to get things moving.

- You’d benefit from a thought partner to give you clarity, structure and support - but where to turn for support and partnership that makes a real difference?!

The experience

- Our unique Live Scoping process is a blend of professional discovery, project exploration, and creative design sprint.

- In this guided experience you’ll work 1:1 with our team to visualize, structure and hone your next initiative.

- We’ll do it through deep-dive diagnostics, a live scoping workshop, and custom-created prototypes.

- And because this work is better together, you can bring two of your key team members to share in the opportunity to learn and co-create.

The outcomes

After this Lab, you’ll walk away with:

- A cohesive pool of ideas and opportunities

- Clarity on possibilities, priorities, and challenges

- Refined structure and architecture

- Recommendations and action plan of next steps to take

Breaking it all down

We believe in the power of bringing the inside out. This is how we do it:

Wavetable Experiences are designed and crafted by hand, built by our dedicated Learning Experience creators (a.k.a. LX creators – which also happens to be a new and valuable job category!).

Each experience utilizes our proprietary LX methodology, and synthesizes our team’s deep and broad expertise across live entertainment, higher education, product development, corporate training, executive coaching, film production, and storytelling.

The result? An eclectic blend of colorful content, stories, case studies, tools, resources, games, and activities.

Always active, always on, and always ready to create meaningful moments for companies like yours.

Eclectic &
Electric vibes

Real-world applicable

As part of wider initiatives around change, innovation, and growth, attendees will work on real-world live projects.

A big part of our Labs is empowering attendees to ladder the session’s work into their day-to-day so that they can apply their learnings straight away.

Built for today, and tomorrow

To paraphrase Doc Brown from Back to the Future: You want roads? Where we’re going, there are no roads.

It’s critical we build on what’s been learned in the past years of pandemic, and what’s happening right now.

One thing we’re sure about is that we’re not going back to the nostalgic halcyon days of yore. You can still listen to that 90s playlist, though (we do, too).

Holistic, Configurable

We go all in for the holistic approach by offering mixed modes and vibes, including co-creation, active learning, gamified experiences and solo reflection.

All our Labs are configured to your needs and goals, and we’ll weave in your unique brand identity and story, too.
