About Creative Oxygen
Our Vision
Creative Oxygen™ represents a revolution in engagement for business, health, and education.
Through training and creative experiences, we bring creative intelligence to the forefront of organisations so that teams are re-engaged and leaders reenergised.
We bridge the gap between creativity and productivity, so that teams start to breathe again.
Why?
%20copy%202_edited.jpg)
A UK-based study by Barker Langham (“Creativity: The Commercial Superpower”) showed that creative interventions reduced stress by up to 81%.
Burnout and disengagement thrive in systems that ignore creativity. This shows up as resentment, listlessness, and a reluctance to share ideas. These problems are costing organisations billions.
Quiet-quitting, underperformance and work-stress aren’t simply personal problems. They’re a cultural issue that undermines your organisation daily. When creativity has been squeezed out of how we work, meaningful growth grinds to a halt.
McKinsey and Company found that companies in the top quartile for creative ability had 67% higher than average organic revenue growth, 70% higher total return to shareholders, and 74% higher net enterprise value.
Creative Oxygen is a culture-building approach that works on the ground to bring energy, engagement, excitement, and trust back into the room using creative tools.
Your bigger-picture mission flourishes when your team and leaders use their creative intelligence. Simply put, people who are encouraged to create become team members who contribute at a higher level.
Only 10% of UK workers feel engaged (Gallup 2023)
Up to 82% of employees don’t trust management (i4cp, 2023)
Most NHS teams say they’re burnt out (YouGov/BPS 2023)
Nearly 40,000 teachers left the profession last year (DfE 2023)
Our Services
We create bespoke packages to meet the needs of your organisation
Workshops
Culture-shifting workshops that turn simple creative tools into valuable habits and systems.
These sessions give your team the space and structure they need to solve problems and communicate on a higher level. When people use their creative intelligence effectively, they're able to form new habits that stick.
Every workshop is bespoke to your organisation and its goals.
Keynotes
Engaging presentations to challenge patterns and encourage creative thinking.
There's nothing quite like a room full of people energised and ready to create. We bring together creatives and industry leaders to build cultures underpinned by a strong belief in the value of creativity.
It's time to bring dynamic, creative energy back into your organisation.
Leadership Training
Unconventional, creative leadership training to strengthen engagement and trust.
Our approach is as unconventional as it is effective. We've solved structural problems through sculpture, tackled uncertainty with animation, and revolutionised team dynamics through painting.
This process encourages effective leadership through creative intelligence.
Partnerships
We provide ongoing support to help you make creative intelligence part of your everyday operations.
Working alongside your leadership team, we instigate long-term culture change and better decision-making in real time. This translates into sharper thinking, less-stressed teams, and fewer wasted resources.
Every partnership is tailored to the pressure points inside your organisation.
Experiences
Practical experiences designed to help manage stress and disengagement through creative action-taking.
When people step outside their usual patterns, surprising ideas emerge, and hidden opportunities are revealed. Hands-on, energising, and deliberately disruptive in the best way, we create experiences off-site or on-site.
Teams walk away with renewed energy, fresh ways of thinking, and a stronger sense of what’s possible at work.
Retreats
A creative reset for teams and leaders who want to develop creative intelligence without interruptions.
Creative Oxygen retreats move your team into a setting where they can think clearly, connect deeply, and build creative intelligence. We explore creative ideation, creative thinking, expression, and action-taking through practical exercises that translate directly back into outcomes at work.
Your team returns feeling engaged and energised.
Creativity is The Bedrock
A study by Barker Langham in 2021 found that organisations reported a 17% increase in productivity when art and creative practices were adopted.
For too long, organisations have treated creativity like an extra— something nice to have but non-essential.
We believe that creativity is foundational. It’s the oxygen for innovation, growth, and an organisational culture worth investing in. Without it, efficiency, engagement, strategy, and real connection start to crumble from within. This affects revenue and competitive advantage.
Learning how to leverage creativity is one of the most important steps your organisation can take.
Client Testimonials
What our clients say about us
Ali came and spoke to 44 of our members - senior executives/ highly experienced and diverse professionals. Ali was clear, honed in on what they needed, and adapted the content entirely around what they needed/asked questions about. She didn't just talk to slides - she engaged and worked with content in the chat and via audience questions. It was brilliant.
Lucy Standing
Founder Brave Starts
Her style is bold, refreshing, and deeply effective. Ali is the person who will help you show up in a way that feels right - without the fluff, without the cringe, and with a strategy that actually works. Highly recommended.
Stephan Zinzen
Founder Veeveo
People love to talk about 1% improvements or incremental growth… but working with Ali blew the roof off the business. She took a tiny seed of an idea and grew it into a creative vision far beyond what I could have imagined — crystal clear, bold, and better than my wildest hopes..
