Team Building Over a Hot Stove
There has been a steady increase over the last couple of decades in the number of companies paying more attention to their staff needs and how well their teams work together. It is becoming increasingly accepted by many business leaders that it is teams that work together who triumph over individually skilled staff working alone.
The number of companies choosing to use team building days has risen by 23% in the last 5 years, and the range of activities open to businesses has more than doubled. Some agencies run team building days were you have to build a car from scratch virtually, and others take place in exotic rain forests. One type of team building day that has proved very popular is corporate cookery days. The format of these days usually includes a competitive element between a number of teams who are required to put together a first course, second course and sweet, which is then later judged by a panel of 'experts'.
The cooking days have been helped along by the increasing profile of Chef Gordon Ramsey and his straight talking management style. In fact many of these team building cookery days use the theme of a Gordon Ramsey style kitchen. Whilst this might seem scary to some, it is actually great fun and getting things wrong only adds to the humour of the situation and helps you work as a team to complete the challenges
These fun, tongue in cheek style team building days are even starting to replace corporate hospitality events. People seem to be moving away from stuffy office get-togethers or the same boring trip to a football match where everyone pretends to be enjoying themselves.People don't want to just watch entertainment these days, they want to be part of the entertainment and getting their hands dirty. Its not that hard to see why either, events such as corporate cooking can be very funny and are a great way to get everyone working together and communicating?
