How to make a case competition feel and look like a fun company outing? Ask Carambole!
We did a bombastic workshop together with WeTransfer back in 2019! I am sure most of you know this name because almost everyone at some point had to move a very large file around.
It had an innovative concept because it was created at the intersection of a fun game and a business case competition. On the one hand, it had all the elements of a fun company outing: a cool venue, mingling with your colleagues and having fun together, lots of drinks, and delicious chocolate; but on the other hand, it was also a real business situation where expertise, collaboration, creative thinking, and presentation skills came in handy. Competing that day was worth it because, of course, there was a prize - a whole 1 kilogram of the highest quality craft chocolate from Krak!
Basically, it was a full-cycle chocolate production in the form of friendly competition. 5 teams with 10 people in each team were creating a concept for a new chocolate, and it was quite a challenge: how to come up with a custom taste, an attractive packaging, and an idea that would resonate with the judges and beat other teams' ideas and execution?
First and foremost, all the team should be made of team members with various skill sets. A team member from the Design department would then be in charge of packaging, and a team member from the Marketing department would have the edge in crafting a market strategy… you get the gist.
Then great collaboration and teamwork come into play! And this is what would make this event great for the teams; it brings the people together in a way different from their everyday work: it creates new connections, it boosts creativity and interdepartmental connections, and after all - it is just a lot of fun!
I wouldn't oversell if I said It was great! You could feel the buzz of creativity; it filled the room and from it a bunch of very cool ideas were born. Everyone was invested in getting their team to win; great projects were presented at the end.
And the best part is, you can ask me for this experience for your team, so you could experience it first-hand!
