Corporate Teams

What Corporate Teams does

Corporate Teams is a privately held, US-based experiential team building and leadership development firm founded in 1995 by Liz Hafer and headquartered in the Denver, Colorado metropolitan area. The company designs and delivers corporate team building events, leadership retreats, executive coaching, and facilitation services for Fortune 500 enterprises, mid-size organizations, and fast-growing startups, with group sizes ranging from small teams to events of 500+ participants. Its proprietary "Adventure in Team Leadership" model and "Leadershifting" methodology, combined with a catalog of 40+ teambuilding programs developed by the founder, form the experiential backbone of the offering.

The company operates a parallel psychometric assessment business built around third-party instruments — Everything DiSC (Workplace, Agile EQ, Productive Conflict, Management, Sales, Work of Leaders), PXT Select, Five Behaviors of a Cohesive Team, Myers-Briggs (MBTI), Emergenetics, and EQ-i 2.0 — delivered through Wiley's Catalyst digital learning platform, MyEverythingDiSC.com mobile platform, and EPIC Administrator Accounts. Corporate Teams holds Diamond Award Winning Wiley Authorized Partner status, the highest tier in the Wiley partner program, and also offers blended Everything DiSC Certification Training that credentials practitioners. A partner site, ProfileAssessments.com, handles transactional digital assessment sales separately from the enterprise facilitation pipeline.

The business model is professional services-led: custom team building events and leadership training engagements are sold through a quote-based enterprise sales motion, while assessments are sold either as one-time licenses or via annual subscriptions tied to certification programs. Pricing is not publicly disclosed. The company has remained founder-owned with no external funding rounds and a leadership bench of 11-50 employees, supplemented by a contract facilitator network and a partnership with 7 Degrees Unlimited for neuroscience-based leadership consulting. Named enterprise clients span Starbucks, Wrigley, the U.S. Coast Guard, the Federal Reserve Bank, Avery Dennison, Big Brothers Big Sisters, and the Young Presidents Organization.
