For the past year, Mandarin Oriental Kuala Lumpur’s general manager Frank Stocek and Tirian International Consultancy CEO Andrew Grant have been in talks to launch an idea so clever, that it is a wonder it has never been done before. Utilising the best of the hotel’s award-winning conference spaces and Grant’s shape-shifting content in creativity and innovation, this exclusive new collaboration will provide corporate clients with a package deal they could not possibly refuse — the chance to participate in one of Grant’s innovation labs in Kuala Lumpur, held on the beautiful grounds of Mandarin Oriental Kuala Lumpur.

Nearly everyone is doing corporate training these days, and for good reason. The world is changing faster than ever before and many companies are struggling to keep up with the pace. In the race to stay afloat, creativity and innovation are often compromised, even though it is these very qualities that will help any company move forward.

This is where Tirian steps in. Grant and his team have developed customised programmes that are creative at their very core and are designed to alter the behaviour and mindset of corporate executives. This is not a team-building retreat at a beach resort that everyone talks about for a week and then forgets about within a month — Grant’s objective is to create permanent change.
