Collaborative Cooking and Tasty Culinary Creations
A dash of new flavours has been added to the existing list of corporate team-building activities with the inclusion of collaborative cooking classes.
Team building activities are not new to the corporate world.
Borrowed from military vocabulary it is now extensively incorporated by multinational corporations for increasing employee efficiency, building team rapport, boosting morale and de-stressing.
In the past, most of these corporate companies planned on outdoor trips with various fun activities and game challenges. Collaborative cooking classes are extensions of these.
Corporate Team building activities and games are exciting interactive hands-on culinary challenges which encourage interpersonal communications and eliminate unhealthy competition in the workforce.
Unlike other team-building activities where challenges usually fan colleague rivalry and jealousy, collaborative cooking brings people together, where everyone cooks and everyone learns.
What’s more? A rewarding experience and bonding over delicious food.
All the reservations are thrown to the winds when the aroma of food takes over.
Looking for a promotion?
This could be a golden opportunity to show one’s leadership skills, problem-solving abilities and teamwork ethics in an informal non-competitive set-up.
Cooking requires as much dedication and passion as an employer would like to see in his/her employee.
And therefore collaborative cooking classes combine the elements of fun and learning and promote team spirit and team management.
A sure-shot recipe for success for any corporation.
After all good food and sharing forge great companionship.
And collaborative cooking classes spread this love of food in a creative way besides being a great ice-breaker amongst colleagues or bosses.
Inspired from Masterchef Kitchen TV series, a lot of culinary schools provide similar conceptual assignments like mystery box challenge, restaurant simulation, desserts challenge and other fun events.
Participants are usually divided into smaller groups and under chef’s supervision whip-up mouth-watering culinary delights while racing against each other to finish their tasks at hand within a designated time frame.
These delicacies are then shared amongst all the participating teams upon the completion of these tasks as delectable rewards.
The recipes are often simple yet delicious keeping in mind the requirements of first-timers as well.
The chefs guide the participants through all the cooking paraphernalia.
And the adjudged winning team also gets to take their culinary creations home, depending upon the amount of food prepared.
If there are cakes and pastries, teams can sell them too and earn while they learn, a double bonanza.
All of these take the term ‘food fight’ to another level. Who doesn’t love them?
For those looking for a casual collaborative cooking class minus the formal suits with their colleagues, customized recipes and challenges can also be created over a more relaxing glass of wine.
All culinary schools personally cater to their client’s learning objectives and budgets.
Companies can also decide on the venues and customize events along with team-building activities specialists.
With major companies like Google, Microsoft, Cisco and others as regular clients, the responses are overwhelming.
The collaborative cooking classes have made a definitive impact and are now being sought after not just in Singapore, the multi-cultural culinary capital of the world, but the world over.
