Bangkok Creative & Cultural Programs
Whether you aim to tap into your group’s creative powers or expand their horizons with interactive, local cultural experiences, these programs will achieve your goals with lots of learning and laughter.
I) Iron Chefs of Bangkok
Program Summary:
This program is a take-off from the popular TV program, and it’s just as fast-paced and enjoyable, with something for everyone to do. Note this is actually a well-rounded training event and cultural competition, not a cooking class.
Your Iron Chefs will need to achieve several objectives, including preparing some delicious Thai cuisine, creating a beautiful table setting to display their sample dishes, as well as completing a few team activities to acquire supplies and market shopping funds.
It’s tasty team building action and the results are usually fantastic! For groups on a tight schedule, we have a shorter, ‘Delicious Thai Desserts’ event that’s also great fun.
Key Concepts / Benefits:
- Cultural learning experience
- Leadership, planning & resource management
- Creativity & team spirit
Parameters:
- 2-4 hr
- 9-90 pax
- Hotel or off-site restaurant
J) The Big Picture
Program Summary:
Does the left foot always know what the right foot is doing in your company? Does it even care? This program is a great way to remind your delegates of how vital it is to look at the ‘Big Picture’ in your organization for true success.
But note this is no easy ‘paint by numbers’ exercise. In fact only a few people on each team can even see what their team is supposed to be painting, and they can only verbally relay this info to their teammates. As such, there are significant communication and planning elements highlighted during the event.
This program has always proven to be an enjoyable and effective means to reinforce the vital concept of ‘One team, One Dream!’
Key Concepts / Benefits:
- Expanding views beyond our own departments
- Refreshing team concepts & group synergy
- Execution under time pressure
Parameters:
- 2-4 hr
- 20-600 pax
- Meeting room or covered area
K) Video Making Adventures
Program Summary:
Lights, cameras, action! After some fun group warm-up activities and supply earning games, the teams will be briefed that they need to create a short commercial video presentation related to your organization’s products, services or goals.
The teams will need to brainstorm ideas, delegate roles, source and scavenge for props, then work together to make an entertaining 2-3 min. video which will be judged for creativity, content, style, and of course, team spirit.
The presentation and judging of videos can be at the end of the event, or during a subsequent meeting or dinner, and we’ve seen some very entertaining and impressive results over the years!
Key Concepts / Benefits:
- Creativity, leadership & coordination
