Cooking Classes are the last frontier of Team Building ; the basic idea is simple: through one or more live sessions of cooking lessons, in which simple and accessible recipes will be prepared, teamwork is stimulated.
The kitchen becomes a means to enhance the personal and professional growth of employees, breaking away from the company routine, working together in a different but at the same time very similar context.
Cucina In Cooking Classes
Cucina In's Cooking Classes are designed to be fun activities for all those who participate, even for those who have never approached the stove. By its very nature, the kitchen has always been a highly training environment and therefore suitable for improving the performance of the company team.
Cooking together requires, in fact, various skills to be able to complete the dish such as, for example:
- creativity;
- conflict resolution;
- leadership;
- ability to adapt;
- empathy;
- self-control;
- proactivity.
Just as in the kitchen, even in companies, it is above all in moments of strong pressure that teamwork makes the difference and it is in the Cooking Classes that they can experience the ability to manage the available resources, the management of unexpected events, communication skills and care of details.
All this is also possible thanks to the help of qualified chefs, in a relaxed and stimulating atmosphere that eliminates the barriers imposed by roles and promotes team-building dynamics.
How the Cooking Classes take place
Under the guidance of a professional Chef, Cucina In's Cooking Classes take place at your own location or locations provided by the company. Groups can be made up of a few participants up to 35, while activities for up to 100 people have been organized in partner locations.
The recipes dedicated to the Cooking Classes range from introductions to basics and pastries, but can also be customized based on the needs of the group and adapting the activities to company objectives:
- Improve the organizational climate;
- Strengthen bonds and collaboration in the team;
- Knowing how to recognize the abilities of others;
- Know how to communicate effectively.
From a corporate perspective, organizing Cooking Classes brings benefits on multiple levels: first of all, it increases employee motivation, because the company demonstrates that it is willing to invest in their success; secondly, by working in synergy, greater mutual trust is acquired.
These activities provide the opportunity to identify ways to improve processes that have hindered productivity and engagement.
Cooking Classes are not just moments of leisure but an investment that brings long-term benefits, in fact, a cohesive team maximizes profitability because it allows everyone to best develop their skills to achieve specific objectives.
There are many affinities between the company and the kitchen: many decisions must be made during the creation of a dish, just as happens in the working environment when there is an objective to be achieved. The same principle also regulates the choice of raw materials which finds its corporate counterpart in the structuring of the most suitable strategy.
The list is still long; however, to be fully understood, it is necessary to get your hands dirty.
