How Hold the Front page Works
Teams create a newspaper front page to reflect aspects of your organisation. Props, Polaroid cameras and craft materials are provided, allowing everyone to get involved in this fun, business-relevant project.
Hold The Front Page is ideal for teams drawn from all levels of an organisation. It also works well for large conference groups with limited time and space.
We can tailor Hold the Front Page to run for 25 to 75 minutes – or anything in between.
To provide a business-relevant context, teams have to ‘fast forward into the future’ and create the front page of a newspaper a year from the date of the event. Each team’s headline story and features have to give a positive take on one of the organisation’s successes over the year.

The general comment today in the office is how amazing the event was and how much fun people had.
University of Edinburgh
Sarah and her team at Maximillion are professional in every way. The quality of events we have run over the last 3 years has been of the highest quality across a mixture of online and larger face-to-face events. You not only get a ‘can do’ attitude but also adaptability as circumstances change and ideas that improve what you are offering your delegates.
BSGAR
Absolutely brilliant from start to finish. This is the second time using Maximillion and on both occasions they have made the event! So much fun and so engaging. The feedback from all who attended was this was a brilliant session. Huge thanks to all involved.
Abertay Housing Association
Ross and the team at Maximillion were an absolute pleasure to work with and played a HUGE part in the success of the Phoenix Leadership UnConference 2023! From the very beginning Maximillion embraced the relaxed feel of this year’s conference and helped bring our vision to life! From a bespoke centre stage to Lego figurines, beanbag seating to branded sticky notes – everything was planned and executed to the highest of standards and myself and the wider team could not be happier! Maximillion have delivered many events for Phoenix Group, they are an extended part of the team and we honestly couldn’t deliver the events like we do without them!
Phoenix Group
Maximillion ran the Urban Adventure for our teams with the activity run in Edinburgh city centre and the feedback has been nothing but positive. The activity brought teams together from different offices and different business areas and was a great way for everyone to get to know each other in a fun and informal activity.

The Lego Serious play event was a great hit with all of our Scotframe participants. Such a great way to get everyone involved and really work as a team.

Very well organised in the lead up and on the day of the event. Clear communication throughout! The team delivered a fantastic Highland Games event on the day that everyone enjoyed. Thanks to Mike, Rhys and the team!
TotalEnergies
Sarah and her team have proved invaluable to the organisation of our flagship event held in London. We partner with leading physicians from across the world to bring the latest thinking in cardiology to the participants, who come from many countries. This requires a team that operates to a high standard and can offer an experience that all involved remember. A foundation of this is the attention to detail, and a drive to get it right – mostly hidden from all when working well, but very obvious if not done. I have no hesitation to recommend Sarah and her team if you have an event you wish to deliver a the highest standards. The Optima team sends all our thanks to them.

I could not be happier with how the event was organised in the months preceding the event and how it was managed on the days. Sarah and her team were both efficient and delightful to work with. I also had positive feedback from my co-host colleagues and a large number of delegates. I am in fact already in dealings with Maximillion again, in preparation of a new international meeting. I highly recommend Maximillion and Sarah Esslemont for leading and organising meeting.
