Sandwiched neatly amongst these business focused sessions, a unique team working exercise delivered the message from a fresh angle. Devised by KDM, the activity involved 10 teams each tasked with building ‘their’ section of the Missing Link machine. Gradually teams discovered they needed to cooperate to bring together the interconnected modules – thus putting into practice the company’s new strategy and enabling delegates to experience first-hand the ‘Unify’ theme.
Culminating in a final glitzy awards dinner complete with starlight ceiling, room dressing and entertainment, the entire proceedings were documented by a corporate cartoonist. Unveiled at the conclusion of the event, this was a colourful, giant landscape of the 3-day immersive strategy conference. Serving as a creative, visual reminder the copies certainly look memorable on the various international offices’ walls!
Relaxing breakout areas for extended lunch and refreshment breaks were set out to give plenty of opportunity for sharing best practices, ideas and strategy. Facilitator led workshop sessions in the welcoming wood panelled syndicate rooms saw delegates gathered in groups to talk through the applications coming out of the presentations. The resulting strategies were collated and re-presented back to the entire group by the lead facilitator to ensure the idea sharing continued.
