BUSINESS BENEFITS: SUPPORTS STRATEGIC PLANNING NETWORKING SKILLSMARKET KNOWLEDGE RISK MANAGEMENT CHANGES ATTITUDES

01:15-01:30 THE WINNERSThe syndicates now combine their cash and size up the score.The winners are announced and receive their prizes.

The Event Director explains that each team represents a coffee trader and money is made by buying coffee from the suppliers, trading with the other syndicates and then selling coffee blends to the customer at a profit! There are 12 teams who form 4 syndicates. The game is played over a period of 3 years and the winners will be the syndicate with the most cash at the end of Year 3.

00:15-00:35 YEAR 1 During each year, there will be time to buy, trade and sell the coffee. At the beginning of the year, the customer’s coffee blend requirements are displayed and the teams make their purchases. Have the teams planned their strategy for the syndicate or just for themselves? Have they read all the information provided and shared this with others? Important details could help them with their long term strategy! When the coffee sales desk closes, teams have time to start trading amongst themselves to create the chosen blends. As we near the end of the year, the Customer’s Desk opens and the teams sell their blends — hopefully at a profit!

00:55-01:15 YEAR 3 When the Blend Requirements Board is displayed it reveals no information immediately — why? The teams should have worked out for themselves, from their own information and through networking, what the blends should be for this period. The Sales Desk opens — still no blends detailed on the board — some teams know the answers, some are still trying to work it out. Finally, the blends are displayed but not much time for buying. Trading continues — has everyone got what they want? Have some teams got coffee supplies left unblended? Can they sell it off cheap or will it affect their profits? For the last time, the Customer’s Desk is open and ready to buy!

00:35-00:55 YEAR 2 Customer blends are displayed — the Sales Desk opens and the teams buy their chosen coffee. Suddenly an urgent newsflash alerts the teams that all is not well in the world of coffee and there is a crisis unfolding which will impact the supply of certain coffees. Will the teams help each other? How does this affect relationships between the teams? In order to bring required coffee supplies into the market, an auction takes place — but do the teams work together to form a proactive strategy or do they outbid each other and force the price of coffee up? Once the auction is over, there is a period of trading to make the right blends, but have some teams left it too late? Did they prepare for this crisis? The Customer’s Desk opens again and the teams sell their blends — have some made a profit — have some made a loss?

NETWORKING STRATEGIC PLANNING KNOWLEDGE SHARING PROCESS IMPROVEMENT PROBLEM SOLVING CELEBRATIONBUSINESS BENEFITS:

00:00-00:10 INTRODUCTIONThe Event Director introduces the concept of the event and describes the importance of effective networking and creative planning. Communication between teams on points such as colour coordination, continuity and brush technique are important in achieving a professional look to the final painting.

1 00:10-00:25 PLANNINGAll teams have one blank canvas and one with an outline representation of the artwork. Using their networking skills teams coordinate to draw the designs on the blank canvases ensuring all the lines join up. Each team will have design information sheets to help them.

2 PLANNING CONTINUESOther team members start to work on various art challenges enclosed in the team’s Big Picture envelope. These are crucial because the team’s have no painting tools with which to complete their canvases. Each correctly answered art challenge is exchanged for painting equipment.

3

00:25-01:25 PAINTINGAt the end of the planning period paint stations open and teams begin painting their canvases. As part of the challenge, only a portion of their colour information sheet is filled in.During the activity no more than a specific number of canvases or information sheets can be joined together at any one time. This is to avoid the delegates seeing the final image and keeping the surprise for the unveiling ceremony.

During this phase it is crucial that teams communicate and coordinate the colour continuity for the whole image.

4 As the deadline approaches, the Event Director counts down the last few minutes of the challenge and teams put the finishing touches to their work. Delegates leave all the canvases on tables and leave the room.

Staff assemble the individual works into a giant frame. The Big Picture is then covered with a large black cloth ready for the unveiling.

01:25-01:30 TIME’S UP5 02:00 THE GRAND UNVEILING!!!With a countdown from the delegates, the painting is revealed to the sound of rapturous applause and the explosion of confetti cannons!This can take place at any appropriate time but ideally during or after dinner.

02:30–03:00 FINALE!!! The event ends with a high-energy Eurovision-style finale. Each nation launches its new identity in a choreographed extravaganza with flags, song, dance and national costume, emphasising strategic thinking, collaboration, creativity and teamwork.

In an era of globalisation it is becoming more and more important for companies and organisations to have a distinctive message, culture and identity. The same goes for nations. All nations have a distinct culture that has been created over time and is influenced by history, culture, geography and national spirit. Brand National is a creative, strategic and motivational exercise that explores the issues of brand and identity by challenging delegates to create their own country from scratch.

00:15-01:00 PLANNING PERIOD Each team will be given a country at random with specific characteristics. With these characteristics each team will have to visualise their nation and plan to develop their national brand identity including country name, national flag, national dress and national manifesto/anthem, through song and dance.

02:00-02:30 DRESS REHEARSAL This is the final opportunity for each team, using all their provided materials, to ensure they have a polished, creative and impressive presentation.

Introduction to Commercial Break by the Event Director — “Today each team will have to produce a short commercial highlighting products, services or the conference message. The commercial must last no longer than two minutes”. More than a classic role play video, this can be made in the style of a feature film, holiday programme, documentary or soap — the list is infinite. To assist there are props, make up, music and cameras. Enjoy!

Films are handed in for judging by the selected awards panel in preparation for the ceremony which can take place after the event or later that evening during dinner.

00:00-00:15 INTRODUCTIONThe Event Director briefs the delegates. It is explained that in the next 45 minutes delegates will be recreating their company name or logo using nothing more than their bodies.

Delegates collect coloured overalls and information relating to their specific position within the name or logo.

00:15-00:40 THE PHOTOOnce dressed and ready, delegates make their way outside to a pre-marked out area. Depending on the logo style, delegates link up with all other delegates within the same ‘letter’ to help complete the overall design. For example, it could take 50 delegates to create a letter ‘T’.

Once in position the creation is photographed from above.

THE CURIO SHOW TIMELINE

BUSINESS BENEFITS:

Between courses, teams / tables are invited to revisit the curios before finalising their answers.

They return to their teams and come to a group consensus before the final answers are handed in.

With all the scores in, the Event Director explains each curio, its history, value and most importantly its purpose. This is followed by the announcement of the winners and presentation of prizes.

A chance for individuals to mingle and casually observe the range of curios placed around the room and to establish the identity, age and value of each item.

Introduction to The Curio Show by the Event Director…”An entertaining, informative and often surprising exploration into the world of antiques.”

First course is served…

The game now takes a different slant and becomes a form of ‘Call My Bluff’. Each team is given the true identity of one curio. Their challenge is to create two plausible descriptions along with the true description and present all three to the other teams. The teams then decide which description is genuine.

Each team has triangular graphic panels that adhere to the cardboard shapes they have created. They network to configure the exact position of these panels ready for the next stage...

01:05-01:25 THE WHOLE GROUPTeams now join forces to create a single giant pyramid using all of the pyramids and other shapes from all teams. The giant pyramid puzzle begins.

1. The pyramid is created layer by layer, ensuring that each piece is correctly placed so the graphic panels join up.

2. As each layer is completed, parts of the final design are revealed.

3. A coordinated group effort is required to stack the layers on top of each other.

4. The final manoeuvre sees the completion of the communal giant pyramid, revealing the conference message as the group celebrates their achievement

01:25-01:30 REVIEWThe Event Facilitator concludes the activity ensuring any key learning benefits are reinforced. A more in-depth review can be arranged to look deeper into the activity and parallels to your business.

The activity begins with an engaging introduction by the Event Facilitator. After warming up the group and giving an overview of the activity, more detailed information is given covering goals, safety, and any learning outcomes that are useful to include up front.

A ‘one group’ common goal of building a giant pyramid is given, but will teams remember this as they start to focus on their own tasks?

00:05-00:15 PLANNINGTeams read through instructions, organise equipment, allocate roles, and discuss best practice.

Each team realises they can separate into smaller groups which work in parallel to complete the task in the given time frame.

00:30-00:45 IT’S ABOUT THE TEAMAs individuals and pairs complete their shapes they join back into their team and begin work on the next stage, creating a team pyramid. This metre tall puzzle requires problem solving and team coordination in order to be successful.

Once their pyramid is complete do participants sit back and congratulate themselves or actively network around the group assisting other teams? Are they focused on the common goal or just on their own team?

00:15-00:30 IT’S ABOUT MEUsing the plans provided, individuals or pairs mark out a piece of card then cut, score and fold to create an unusual three dimensional shape.
