Inspire, connect, and elevate your team with a unique experience

Museum Sage® is a transformative experience that reveals fresh insights into a life or business question through a guided interaction with a work of art.

Participants receive an experience that includes elements of mindfulness, close-looking, brainstorming, and crowd-sourcing. This unlocks how participants see their business or life challenges — and generates creative options that can lead to immediate change.

Your group of up to 20* meets at the Minneapolis Institute of Art in a private room for an introduction to the process. Teams of four are led to a gallery by their Guide (trained leadership and executive coaches).

Each team member connects to their artwork, discusses their question, hears from others in their group, and commits to an action step based on insights they gained. The event concludes with a debrief and a celebratory catered lunch or drinks and appetizers.

“Our Museum Sage session got a 94% approval rating from 18 globally based directors.
That’s an unusually high score from this discerning group.”

– A.M., Executive Coach & Senior Program Manager, Fortune 500 Global company
