Leadership starts with awareness — of who we are, how we show up, and the impact we have.

Perfect balance between engaging interaction and professional development
"I had the pleasure of participating in the Maxwell Leadership Game facilitated by Amina at TMC, and I highly recommend the experience. Amina brings an exceptional level of positive energy and enthusiasm to her sessions. She strikes a wonderful balance between engaging interaction and meaningful professional development, creating a safe space where everyone feels involved and valued. What stood out most to me was her ability to make leadership concepts accessible and relevant, even for highly technical profiles. Her facilitation encourages reflection, open dialogue, and genuine connection. Any organization looking to actively develop their team's soft skills and values-based leadership will benefit greatly from her guidance."

The Maxwell Leadership Game
A Transformative Experience for Leaders, Teams, and Organisations
The Maxwell Leadership Game is a powerful, game‑based mastermind experience designed to strengthen team communication, trust, and collaboration. In small groups of 6 to 12 participants, we explore meaningful leadership questions that spark reflection, dialogue, and connection.
Grounded in John Maxwell’s values‑based leadership principles, the experience creates a structured yet energising environment where teams can communicate openly, understand each other more deeply, and build a stronger foundation for working together. Through thought‑provoking questions and guided discussion, participants gain new perspectives, raise their leadership awareness, and strengthen the values that shape how they show up.
While primarily used as a high‑impact team‑building tool for organisations, the Leadership Game is also offered in select peer‑learning sessions — giving growth‑oriented professionals and entrepreneurs the opportunity to experience the same depth of insight and connection among like‑minded leaders.
I cannot wait to play again!
The leadership game provided me with some surprising and welcome insights. Guided by the deep, thought-provoking questions, I think all participants learned a lot from and about each other. The workshop was well-paced, and Amina made sure we ended in time, but I felt most of us could have gone on for a while longer. Thank you. I can’t wait to play again! - Jessica J.J. Lutz, Brussels

Make Room for the Conversations That Bring People Together
In a busy organisation, conversations often focus on tasks, deadlines, and decisions. Assumptions can go unspoken, strengths unnoticed, and uncertainties unshared. Sometimes, what helps a team move forward is the opportunity to pause, listen, and see one another with fresh eyes.
A Space to Understand
Thought-provoking questions invite people to share what matters to them and discover the person behind the role. A colleague’s story can offer an unexpected point of recognition.
A Mirror for Your Impact
Hearing how others experience you can reveal strengths you take for granted and bring fresh awareness of how your behaviour influences those around you.
A Foundation for Trust
Honest conversation and different perspectives can help people appreciate one another and explore their contribution to a good working atmosphere.
Why I Bring People Around This Table
I facilitate the Leadership Game because I care about how people experience working together: whether they feel heard, their contribution is recognised, and there is room to learn from one another.
With warmth, structure, and curiosity, I invite everyone to contribute. There is room for reflection, different opinions, recognition, and laughter.
Participants describe feeling closer as a team, discovering surprising things about themselves and others, and feeling involved and valued. Those are the experiences I hope to make possible each time we gather around the table.
Different Teams, Shared Human Experiences
People do not need to share the same role or working environment to recognise something of themselves in one another.
Operational teams
Make time to understand the colleagues you rely on every day, recognise their contributions, and explore how you communicate and support one another.
Management teams
Reflect on shared values, the example you set, and how your intentions are experienced by others. The way you work together shapes the atmosphere around you.
Cross-functional teams
Explore the different priorities behind each person’s approach. Sharing perspectives can build understanding and common ground across departments.
Young talents
Find recognition and encouragement as you navigate uncertainty, find your voice, and discover your influence. Learn how others approach situations on their leadership journey.
Consultants across client projects
Discover shared challenges behind different assignments. Exchange approaches, explore uncertainties, and draw inspiration from peers who recognise your experience.
An Invitation for Your Team
Perhaps you recognise your own team here. You may be looking for deeper connection, a fresh perspective on how you work together, or simply time for conversations that deserve more space. Explore the practical options below, or get in touch to talk through what might fit.

Testimonials
What participants are saying:
If you are looking for a lively and thought-provoking event, I can recommend the Leadership Game! Amina, our host, led us through a series of questions – randomly selected following a throw of dice (that’s why it’s a game!) – to which all participants brought their personal experiences and insights. A lovely way to share and be inspired. Thank you Amina for your passion and energy which are totally contagious! - Kathy Brandt, Brussels”
I was surprised to experience that professionals from very different walks of life can develop such a high level of connection and open communication within such a short time and within an online setting. Amina led the game so well that people shared their"gems", providing clarity and high value to everybody.
A truly enriching experience! - Frida Lezius, Greece
Thank you to Amina Langedijk for facilitating the Leadership Game with CJD Belgium (Centre des Jeunes Dirigeants). A moment of exchange, shared values, unexpected compliments, and revealed complementarities. Our guests of the day fit seamlessly into this intrigued circle. We were curious, hesitant, doubtful, perplexed... We emerged enriched by the confirmation of our shared values and moved by the way our peers see us… A true CJD evening!
