Corporate Wellness with a Twist: Floral Team Building

With a rich background in corporate and client service, Blooming Garden Flowers founder Mo Ihekweazu brings a fresh, engaging approach to team building through custom floral workshops.

Mo’s experience includes nearly five years at a Big 4 management consulting firm, where she specialized in designing and leading client workshops across the U.S., tailoring each experience to unique organizational needs. With multiple facilitation certifications and over 15 years of cross-industry experience, Mo is highly skilled at engaging audiences from all levels of leadership. Her passion lies in bringing people together and unlocking creativity through thoughtfully crafted, hands-on experiences.

In each floral team building class, Mo teaches the art of flower arranging in a fun, approachable, and inspiring way. It’s a chance for your team to unplug, connect, and explore a sense of creativity they may not have known they had. Every participant will leave with a beautiful arrangement they created themselves.

Workshops are fully mobile—Mo brings everything needed to the location of your choice, whether it’s a conference room, private dining space, outdoor terrace, or co-working hub. This is corporate wellness redefined, with a one-of-a-kind experience your team won’t forget. Learn more in our Corporate Team Building Brochure.

Floral Class FAQ’s

Mo, what’s your work background? I hold an MBA from Duke University and a bachelor’s degree from Emory University. I’ve spent several years in client service roles, including nearly five years at a top management consulting firm and two years at a boutique consultancy. I’ve also worked as a Director of Strategy & Operations at a Fortune 500 company.

I’ve lead countless client workshops throughout my consulting career, and teaching and conducting fun workshops are some of my great passions in life.  I genuinely love teaching and facilitating engaging, hands-on, and meaningful experiences that bring people together and spark creativity.

Why do you teach these classes? During the pandemic, I experienced a lot of personal loss—and it led me to reevaluate how I was spending my time. I knew I needed to rediscover joy, and I found that through flowers and teaching. I dove into formal floral design training, read extensively on the subject, and began creating arrangements for clients.

From there, the idea grew. I wanted to share the joy of flowers with others, while giving them the skills to create something beautiful for their homes or workplaces. Having attended many corporate team-building events myself, I saw a gap—many felt repetitive or uninspired. My floral workshops are a creative, relaxing, and fun alternative that allow teams to connect in a meaningful way while learning a skill they can use for years to come. I officially launched Blooming Garden Flowers in 2022—and haven’t looked back since.

How long are these floral classes? Each workshop is designed to be fun, interactive, and approachable, lasting between 75 to 90 minutes from start to finish. We kick things off with a light icebreaker to get everyone comfortable, then dive into the floral design experience. Workshops can take place during or right after work—either in your office or at a location of your choice. We wrap up with a brief mindfulness exercise, leaving everyone on a positive, refreshed, and appreciative note.

As a client, what do we need to bring to one of these sessions? Just bring yourselves—I’ll take care of the rest! I provide all the necessary supplies, including fresh flowers, vases, floral shears, and everything else needed for the workshop. Many clients like to enhance the experience with light bites, snacks, or drinks—especially for lunch or after-hours sessions—but that’s entirely up to you.

How big are these sessions? Class sizes typically range from 5 to 50 participants. For larger groups, I may recommend splitting into multiple sessions to ensure I can provide personalized, hands-on attention to everyone.

When should I schedule a class? Any time! Below are some ideas:

-Valentine’s Day*

-Administrative Assistant Day*

-Mother’s Day*

-Summer Associates/Interns  

-Client Appreciation and/or Business Development (any time of year)

-Women’s Interest Group(s)

-Holidays (generally October/November/December time frame)

-Whenever, just because!

*= can be marketed as a gift giving class and therefore easy to make co-ed
