In Good Hands · Team Building
Team building that doesn’t make anyone cringe.
Not a show your team watches. Something they do. Everyone learns a real magic trick, works it out in small groups, and performs it for the room.
Trusted by
Hans Grane runs In Good Hands, team building built around magic, for companies worldwide. Most team building either bores people or makes them cringe. This does neither, because it gives the room one real thing to be a little scared of, together. Everyone learns a real magic trick, works it out in small groups, and performs it for the room. 90 to 120 minutes, 20 to 25 people, up to three sessions a day, in English.
Learning a trick means failing at it first, in front of someone, more than once. Then getting it right. Doing that as a team, in a safe room, is the whole point. A team that has been a bit uncomfortable together and backed each other through it talks to each other differently afterwards.

A short reel beats any description. This is what the night actually looks like.
What you get
A souvenir that isn’t a lanyard.
- A shared experience of doing something hard and slightly scary, together
- Every person leaves having learned a real trick they can actually perform
- A team that has failed in front of each other and found out it is fine, which changes how they talk afterwards
- A genuine reset of attention and connection. Phones down, eyes up
- No forced participation, no cringe, no trust falls
Built for: offsites, conferences, kick-offs and leadership programmes. Works best for groups willing to be a little brave for two hours.
How it works
A team that dares together.
Four steps, each a slightly bigger dare than the last, every one of them in a room where it is safe to take it.
Hans pulls you in. Hans works the whole room with magic that happens through everyone. Everyone is in it, nobody is put on the spot. The guard drops, and the room finds out it is in safe hands.Nobody on the spot
Uncover the secret. Everyone learns a real trick and gets let in on how it is done. Your first dare, in private. The secret was never talent. It was reps.Your first dare
In it together. Small groups team up and work it out. You fail in front of each other and fix it together. Where the room gets comfortable being uncomfortable.The shared dare
Make magic. Each group takes the floor and makes the magic happen. You did the thing you were sure you could not. A team that dares together comes back closer.The big dare

What clients say
From people who booked him
“Well prepared, starts gently, slips in a few tricks and then it just builds. Tops the night by completely fooling the whole room. Six out of six from us.”

Team building FAQ
What actually happens in a session?
Hans performs and teaches the thinking behind it, then everyone learns a trick, works it out in small groups, and performs it for the room. Four steps: warm up, learn it, crack it together, dare.
How long is a session?
90 to 120 minutes.
How many people?
20 to 25 per session, up to about 30. Run up to three sessions in a day for 75 to 100 people.
What does it cost?
From $2,500 per session, or $6,000 for a full day of three sessions. Travel and accommodation extra.
Do we need anything set up?
Just a room with chairs that move and space for small groups to spread out.
Is it actually useful, or just fun?
Both. The point is taking a real social risk in a safe room: performing, failing, trying again, and backing each other. That is what stays with a team.
Where does Hans do this?
Barbados and across the Caribbean as standard. Elsewhere, including Norway, with travel.
Is it in English?
Yes, in English. It is built for international teams, and nobody needs a translator to learn a trick, so everyone is included whatever their first language.
