Building stronger teams.

Where people do great work together and feel good too.

We help teams say what really matters and turn conflict into an ally.

Is this your team?

Perhaps…

  • Meetings are polite … but nothing really shifts.

  • The team is busy, overwhelmed or on the edge of burnout.

  • Conflict is avoided, or gets messy.

  • A few voices dominate while others stay silent.

  • There’s trust - but not enough to say the real thing.

  • People are showing up… but not fully bringing it.

  • The team is focused on their individual agenda, not looking at the wider team alignment.

  • You’ve done off-sites, but the tension still lingers.

What we do.

We work with teams who want more than surface-level harmony. Teams that want to be stronger together. We help you have the conversations that clear the air, deepen trust, and move the work forward.

We build…

  • Resilient teams that stay steady under pressure and adapt with confidence

  • Creative thinking and skilful conflict that drives better problem-solving and fresh ideas

  • Stronger retention because people feel connected, valued, and part of something that works

That means slowing down to hear what’s really going on. Naming the dynamics that drain energy or create tension. Turning conflict into something useful, not personal. Reconnecting the team to each other, and to the work that matters.

Honest teams work better together.

Our launch offer.

Make it Work

A bold, limited offer for teams who are ready to stop avoiding and start evolving.

This is team coaching built for real change: honest conversations, practical tools, and momentum that sticks.

We’re offering one in-person and one virtual team the chance to work with us at 40% discount - in return for feedback, a testimonial, photos, and two introductions.

We believe.

  • We believe conflict isn’t the problem, avoiding it is.

  • We believe the most powerful teams are the ones willing to speak the truth.

  • We believe every voice matters, especially the quiet ones.

  • We believe trust is built in the small moments - and the brave ones.

  • We believe in laughter, even when the work is deep.

  • We believe in disruption, the kind that leads somewhere better.

  • We believe your team has everything it needs to thrive, it just needs space to see it.

Team performance improves when teams face the undiscussables, work through tension, and stand together.

  • What others are saying...

    “I’ve known Duncan for about 11 years, and Vanessa for about 5. I’ve considered them both dear friends and valued colleagues for as long as I’ve known them.

    But it was only about 18 months ago or so that I saw them working together for the first time. I was amazed at how in sync they were, and how their different energies complemented one another. Between them they hold humour and gravity; gentleness and toughness; playfulness and a courageous willingness to get real and to the heart of the matter.

    Duncan and Vanessa are already a powerful, joyous, transformative team – with Owl and Weaver I truly believe that they have the potential to multiply their impact to a degree probably they don’t even realise as yet.

    I can’t wait to see it unfold…
