Why choose us in Lyon?

Traditional leadership courses often miss the mark because they don't challenge people to step out of their comfort zones. In Lyon, we provide a raw, authentic environment that demands real leadership. Here is why our graffiti workshop is the ultimate training ground: 🚀

Visualise the vision: Force your leaders to translate abstract strategies into a concrete, collective mural. ✨
Break down silos: Nothing destroys corporate barriers like sharing a spray can and a wall in the 7th arrondissement. 🤝
Agile decision making: Graffiti is fast! Leaders must make quick, confident choices as the paint dries. ⏱️
Iterative growth: Learn how to "paint over" mistakes and turn unexpected drips into intentional masterpieces. 💪
Authentic connection: See your colleagues in a new light, stripped of suits and titles, working toward a shared goal. 🎨
Unforgettable impact: Unlike a seminar, the physical act of painting creates a lasting memory that sticks with the team for years. 🏆

How it works

Initial briefing: We start with an energetic introduction to the history of Lyon’s street art and an overview of the day’s leadership objectives.
Gear up and safety: Everyone gets fitted with protective suits, gloves, and masks while learning the essential 'can-control' safety rules.
Technical masterclass: Our pro artists demonstrate 'fading', 'outlining', and 'filling' techniques. You’ll practice your first tags on a practice wall.
The vision phase: The group must brainstorm a concept that represents their leadership vision. This is where communication and listening skills are first tested.
Role delegation: Teams decide who handles the background, the lettering, and the fine details, mirroring project management in the workplace.
The collaborative spray: Under the guidance of our artists, the team works together to bring the giant mural to life on a Lyon wall.
Adaptation challenge: Mid-way through, we introduce a 'pivot'—a change in the requirements that forces leaders to adapt their strategy in real-time.
Final reveal and debrief: We step back to admire the masterpiece. We then lead a session connecting the creative process to your team's real-world leadership challenges.

Frequently asked questions

Do we need any previous artistic skills to participate?

Absolutely no prior art experience is needed! Our Lyon-based graffiti artists are experts at guiding everyone from complete beginners to secret Picassos. The workshop focuses on the process of collaborative creation and leadership rather than technical perfection. You'll be amazed at how quickly your team masters the spray cans and creates something they are proud of by the end of the session.

Is the graffiti workshop safe and what gear do you provide?

Safety is our top priority. We provide high-quality FFP3 masks, protective gloves, and disposable suits to keep everyone safe and clean. We use professional-grade spray paints in well-ventilated outdoor or indoor spaces. Our instructors provide a comprehensive safety briefing before anyone touches a can, ensuring a worry-free environment where your team can focus entirely on their leadership goals and creative expression.

How long does a typical leadership workshop last?

A standard leadership training session in Lyon typically lasts between 2 and 3 hours. This includes the introductory briefing, technique practice, the main collaborative project, and a final debrief where we connect the artistic experience back to your specific leadership objectives. We can also customise the duration to fit into a larger corporate away-day or intensive management seminar if required.

Where in Lyon do the workshops take place?

We are incredibly flexible! We have access to several vibrant 'Hall of Fame' legal walls around Lyon, such as those in the 7th arrondissement. However, if you have a specific venue in mind or want us to come to your office car park (with permission), we can bring our mobile setup. We also offer indoor 'canvas-based' workshops for those rainy Lyon afternoons.

What are the payment terms for corporate bookings?

Unlike many other providers, we don't require any payment before the workshop takes place. We believe in the quality of our service and want you to book with total confidence. You'll receive an invoice after the event is successfully completed. This makes the administrative process much easier for corporate HR and procurement departments. We just want you to focus on the team-building experience!

Can you tailor the workshop to our specific leadership goals?

Yes, that is the core of our leadership vertical! Before the session, we discuss your specific goals—whether it’s improving cross-departmental communication, trust-building, or agile decision-making. Our artists then facilitate the 'mural challenge' in a way that highlights these dynamics, followed by a reflective session to translate the colourful chaos of the wall into actionable workplace strategies.
