Case study
The British & Irish Lions: a leadership day with a difference
A team class for the Lions staff leadership day in June 2026, coached by a Lion, with every detail handled.
How we ran it
An out-of-office experience for the team
For their staff leadership day in June 2026, The British & Irish Lions wanted something that got the whole team out of the meeting room and working together. We designed a team class around the day and ran it in the office gym we manage for SMBC Aviation Capital in Dublin.
01 Built Around The Day
A 40-minute team class in the afternoon: a warm-up, three 10-minute blocks of team challenges and a cool-down, pitched so everyone could take part.
02 Coached By A Lion
Jack McGrath, Lion #827 and Collective co-founder, coached the session with our team.
03 Teams With A Story
Staff competed in Lions-themed teams, The Originals and The Trailblazers.
04 Every Detail Handled
Check-in at reception, a health declaration before the day, towels embroidered for the event, goodie bags for everyone, and luggage storage for the UK team flying home straight after.
“Everyone left buzzing.” The Lions leadership team, after the session
