Sounds familiar?

01

Making room for new connections.

Busy days can leave little space to get to know colleagues beyond their roles.

02

Bringing different perspectives together.

Across departments, languages and cultures, a shared experience can offer a fresh conversation starter.

03

Welcoming people into the team.

Whether colleagues are new or familiar, doing something together offers another way to connect.

Your team may already work well together. An MHL experience can be a chance to celebrate, welcome colleagues or simply enjoy something new together.

What your team does together

MOVE

Movement, rhythm and play. No dance experience needed.

DRAW

Simple creative exercises that start conversations. No artistic skill needed.

BUILD

Hands-on creation with room for different ideas and contributions.

VOICE

Playful voice and listening exercises. No singing needed.

TASTE

Food as a doorway to traditions, memories and backgrounds.

The activity is the vehicle for connection. We combine and adapt formats to your people and your occasion.

Why I started MHL

Growing up in Hong Kong and moving to the Netherlands as a teenager shaped my understanding of different cultures and the importance of belonging. Over 25 years in international business, I've seen how genuine connections build trust and strengthen working relationships. I created MHL to bring that understanding into the workplace through meaningful, carefully designed experiences that help people connect beyond their job titles.

How it works

  1. 01

    Tell us about you

    Understand the team, context, occasion and goal.

  2. 02

    We design

  3. 03

    We bring it to you

    MHL manages the programme, partners, materials and logistics.

  4. 04

    MHL hosts; the specialist Expert Partner leads the activity; you enjoy it.

  5. 05

    Build on the connection

    One experience can develop into an ongoing series.

Specialist Expert Partners lead the activities. MHL designs, organises and hosts the experience, and is your main contact from start to finish.

Designed to encourage connection

  • Conversations that go beyond job titles
  • Opportunities to feel part of the team
  • Contact across departments and cultures
  • New ways to get to know colleagues
  • More meaningful time together
  • Shared memories to build on

Each team is different. We create opportunities for conversation and connection, with room for people to participate in their own way.

One experience or a year of connection

Start with one experience. If you would like to build on it, we can explore a series through the year, combining formats around your team and its interests.

An experience shaped around your team

A reason to come together

  • Welcome new colleagues into the team
  • Connect people across departments and cultures
  • Celebrate a milestone or shared occasion
  • Enjoy something new as a team

A format that works for you

  • Typically around 20–50 people taking part
  • Around three hours, tailored by agreement
  • Your workplace or an arranged venue
  • The Hague, Delft, Rotterdam and Leiden

We work in these cities and nearby locations. MHL can arrange an external venue, and we discuss the group size, timing and practical needs together.

Questions managers ask

Is this also for teams that already work well together?
Yes. An experience can be a way to celebrate your team, welcome new colleagues, explore different perspectives or simply spend time together beyond everyday work.
What makes an MHL experience distinctive?
MHL combines shared activities with opportunities for conversation and cultural exchange. We design around your people and occasion, with specialist Expert Partners leading the activities and MHL coordinating and hosting.
Do people need to be creative or sporty?
No previous creative or sporting experience is needed. Tell us about your team and any practical requirements so we can discuss a suitable format together.
What happens when we enquire?
We get in touch by email within two days to explore your ideas, discuss what might work and explain the next steps. Your enquiry is non-binding.

Beyond the workplace

MHL began with a simple belief: life feels better when we feel connected. Alongside our work with organisations, we continue to create workshops, cultural experiences and community events.
