The Planners Retreat

Where Stategy Meets Imagination

Redefining Leadership
Creativity, and Wellbeing in Events

The opening day of CSE Live 2026 introduces The Planners’ Retreat, a leadership and creative development experience designed to renew your vision, deepen your connections, and strengthen your professional edge.

This is a day to restore balance, to nourish your mind, body, and creative spirit while expanding how you lead and collaborate. Through honest conversation, interactive learning, and moments of stillness, you’ll explore what sustainable success truly means in today’s fast-moving industry.

What to Expect

We’re building this day around collaboration and creative courage. Expect hands-on sessions, shared stories, and sensory experiences that stretch your thinking and stir your imagination. This day is designed to move you creatively, emotionally, and professionally. Every moment invites you to reconnect with your voice, your vision, and your sense of power. Expect depth, surprise, and beauty in equal measure

Worth Workshop

A heart-to-head reset on money, value, and ownership. Explore how we define worth — for ourselves and our work — to price, protect, and communicate it with confidence while building a mindset for lasting financial wellbeing.

Creative Intelligence

Explore the intersection of imagination and leadership and discover how to stay inspired while leading teams, managing clients, and designing experiences that move people. Grow your creative IQ and build everything with a creative lens.

The Muse Lab​

A recharge for the senses and the spirit. Step out from behind the laptop and play with colour, texture, sound, and storytelling, to rediscover what inspires you to create. It’s about finding joy in the process and reconnecting with the artistry behind the work.

Soul Food Stories

Food is the heart of every event. Through guided tastings and conversation, you’ll learn how culinary storytelling shapes connection, emotion, and memory and how intentional design around food can elevate every event.
