Healthy Team
Professional Chef Cook-Off
Who
hasnt imagined being a Chef for a day? Dressed in dazzling whites,
armed with ingenuity as their main tool, your team will be transformed
into Iron Chefs racing against the clock, everyone pitching in to
bring their team to victory.
This is no audience style cooking demonstration. Your team will
actually cook their own banquet. Lead by a professional chef the program
is arranged to mimic a restaurant kitchen with its unique challenges and
team philosophy. Just as in a professional kitchen teams must often
succeed with limited resources and time, your team will soon discover
cooperation and mutual support is how to rise to the challenge.
The highlight of the day is the banquet, where teams enjoy a full meal
of their own creation.
The Activity:
Professional chefs often work in tight spaces and are frequently under
the gun as far as time, tools and resources are concerned. To be
successful chefs must think on their feet, using their ingenuity and
working in harmony, supporting all team members to achieve their
mission.
The
Process: Using a format
similar to the Iron Chef television program, the group must produce
their banquet within an allotted time frame. The mission that must drive
the entire team -- the whole banquet must be completed at the exact
moment specified. To achieve this it will be necessary for all teams to
work interdependently.
When the banquet is complete the team will sit down together and will
enjoy the fruit of their labors.
Some of the Team Benefits:
-
Manage time in a
fast-paced environment
-
Work with flexibility to
adapt to changing needs
-
Valuing everyones
contribution
-
Create an atmosphere
where healthy risk-taking is fun
