What I Love About Cooking Team Building 2
So, yes, cooking team building can be fun. At the same time, it produces great results. It gets people on equal footing (getting the CEO washing up with a junior clerk is great to see). Team building events with cooking bring them together immediately as interaction, communication, team work and strategic thinking all play an important role in a team building cooking activity, especially our MasterChef Challenge. And eating together is such a natural way for people to bond.
What I also love about team building cooking is getting people excited about good food and home cooking. So many of the people we work with have gotten into convenience eating. I regularly hear from people after events discovered how much they enjoy cooking, and eating together with their partners, families and friends.
I also love that cooking team building events tick all the boxes for ‘best practice’ team building events recommended in this Harvard Business Review blog post.
But what I really love about cooking team building is that the people who attend love it so much. I get so many hugs and kisses from people as they leave our events that I always think how incredibly lucky I am to do something I love so much.
