Do we need to have any artistic talent or prior experience?

Absolutely not! Our leadership training is designed for beginners. Our professional graffiti artists will teach you the fundamental techniques of handling a spray can, from 'fat caps' to fine lines. The focus here is on the creative process and the leadership lessons derived from it, not on your ability to paint a masterpiece. We provide all the guidance you need to feel comfortable and confident with a can in your hand.

Can you bring the leadership workshop to our office?

Ideally, we host these sessions at legal street art locations or our partnered studios around Newcastle. This provides an authentic atmosphere. However, if your venue has a suitable outdoor space with plenty of ventilation, we can often bring the workshop to you. We use protective floor coverings and screens to ensure the area stays clean. We can also use water-based low-odour paints for specific indoor requirements if needed.

What should our team wear and do you provide safety gear?

We take care of everything! Your team will be provided with high-quality overalls, gloves, and professional-grade masks to ensure everyone stays clean and safe. While we provide protective gear, we always recommend that participants wear comfortable clothing and shoes that they wouldn't mind getting a tiny speck of paint on, just in case. Safety is our number one priority throughout the session.

How long does a typical graffiti leadership session last?

A standard leadership workshop typically lasts between 2 and 3 hours. This allows enough time for the ice-breaker, technical training, the collaborative planning phase, and the final 'Big Reveal' where we deconstruct the leadership lessons learned. We can adjust the duration slightly to fit your corporate schedule, ensuring you get the full impact of the experience without rushing the creative flow.

What is the minimum and maximum group size?

Our workshops are highly scalable. We can accommodate small executive teams of 10 or large department-wide sessions of up to 100+ people. For larger groups, we bring in additional professional artists to ensure every sub-team receives personal coaching and keeps the energy high. We maintain a high artist-to-participant ratio to ensure the quality of the training remains top-notch for everyone involved.

What happens if it rains on the day of our workshop?

Rain is just part of the charm in the North East! Most of our outdoor locations have covered areas where we can continue to paint comfortably. If the weather is particularly foul and your chosen location is fully exposed, we have backup plans including indoor studios or rescheduling options. Because we have a team of backup artists, we are very flexible and will work with you to ensure your event goes ahead.

How do we measure the results of this leadership training?

Success is measured by the shifts in team dynamics. Throughout the session, we facilitate 'pit stops' where teams reflect on their communication, role allocation, and pivot strategies. After the workshop, we provide a summary of observed 'Street Leadership' behaviours. Plus, you’ll have a massive, colourful piece of art (either on a wall or a portable canvas) that serves as a visual testament to your team's collective vision.

The experience

Why swap the suit for a hoodie? Because the best lessons aren't found in a PowerPoint deck. Here is why Newcastle’s top teams are choosing our graffiti workshops to develop their next generation of leaders:

Level the Playing Field: High-level directors and new managers are equally "bad" at graffiti to start. It breaks down hierarchies instantly! 🏆
Visualise the Future: Creating a massive mural requires a shared vision and the ability to communicate it clearly to the whole team.
Agile Decision Making: Street art is fast. You’ll learn to make quick, confident decisions and adapt to "mistakes" in real-time. ✨
Boost Creative Output: Step outside the office and unlock the lateral thinking skills that drive real innovation in your business.
Stronger Bonds: Nothing builds a Geordie team like creating something massive and colourful together on a Newcastle wall. 🎉
Risk Management: Learn how to take calculated creative risks in a safe, controlled (but exciting!) environment.

Step by step

The Briefing: We start with a high-energy intro to street art culture and how it parallels modern leadership—fast-paced, adaptable, and bold.
Basic Skills Training: Every leader needs a foundation. We teach your team the technical basics of spray painting so everyone starts on a level playing field.
The Vision Phase: Teams are tasked with designing a concept that represents their leadership goals. This is where communication and 'big picture' thinking come into play.
Role Allocation: We identify 'Lead Artists', 'Detail Specialists', and 'Background Support' within your team, highlighting the importance of every role in a project.
The Sketching Stage: Moving from paper to the wall. This requires coordination and consensus-building as the abstract ideas take their first physical form.
The Execution: The cans start spraying. This phase tests real-time problem-solving and the ability to pivot when things don't go exactly to plan.
The Polishing: Leaders learn the value of the 'final 10%'. Adding shadows, highlights, and outlines to turn a good piece into a great one.
The Debrief: We stand back and evaluate. We discuss what worked, what failed, and how these 'street' lessons apply to your office environment in Newcastle.

Good to know

Duration: 2 to 3 hours of high-impact activity.
Group Sizes: Perfect for small management teams (10+) or large corporate groups (100+).
Everything Included: We provide professional spray paint, protective overalls, gloves, masks, and canvases/walls.
Safety First: Led by expert artists with full PPE and comprehensive safety briefings.
Backup Artists: We have a deep roster of talent in the North East, so your event is never cancelled.

Local culture

Newcastle has always been a city of grit and creativity, from its industrial roots to the world-class culture of the Quayside. The street art scene here is thriving, with incredible murals popping up from Ouseburn to the city centre. When you choose our Newcastle leadership training, you’re tapping into that Geordie spirit of innovation and hard work. We often host our sessions near the iconic Tyne Bridge or in the creative hub of Ouseburn, providing an authentic backdrop that inspires bold thinking. 🎨

Fun Fact: Did you know Newcastle's Ouseburn Valley is considered one of the birthplaces of the UK's modern urban transformation? It’s the perfect place to learn about leading through change and renewal!

Pricing

Our leadership workshops in Newcastle are tailored to your specific goals. Pricing typically ranges from £25 to £55 per person, depending on the number of participants, the location, and the level of customisation required (such as custom-branded canvases to take back to the office).

Because every leadership journey is unique, we don't believe in one-size-fits-all pricing. Let’s talk about what your team needs!
