Following recent funding success, LifeArc are on an incredible journey to achieve its potential in medical research. Whilst they have the capabilities and the talent within the organisation to achieve this, they recognised they needed to strengthen their culture to truly evolve future growth and success. Having recently refreshed their Principles, the set of behaviours required as an organisation to drive their culture forwards, LifeArc recognised the need to engage the entire organisation to make this a reality.

Working closely with the team at LifeArc, we designed and produced a 3-day creative, immersive and engaging event focusing specifically on bringing their Principles to life and creating a sense of belonging so the organisation was united facing into the challenges ahead.

We creatively shaped the three days to take the participants in the room on a journey. We orchestrated activities and sessions to reconnect participants who had not been together for a very period of time. This included creating “practice groups” to bring people across together from different teams and functions.

LifeArc has now launched into the beginning of their journey of bringing their Principles to life and to embed the behaviours required to make their organisation a success. Participants left the three days feeling reenergised and inspired having been reminded of the importance of why they work at LifeArc, what it means to belong and be a part of the OneLifeArc story, and what they need to do as a collective to make OneLifeArc a success. 

Following the event, we have been continuing our work with LifeArc to maintain the momentum of OneLifeArc and the Principles working closely with their leadership and organisational development teams.
