The first day - Founders Day
The first day was all about fun, games, and stress! The day started with creative drawing and guessing game in teams. From each guessed word the teams gathered points and by the end of the day, a winning team was selected.
The main task for each team was to make a 10-minute movie – write a script, film, and edit and have a premiere by the end of the day. Just when teams started working on the script the moderator pulled everybody back in the main Zoom room to announce that there is a bomb
Each team had to then defuse a bomb. The CEO of the team downloaded a bomb app and all the teammates had bomb-defusing manuals. The CEO had to describe the bomb and participants had to explain to him what cord to cut or buttons to press.
The second day - .Cocoon Day
All this was necessary to get to know the participants for the next day. The teams gathered again to focus on mentoring. Each participant had prepared a business challenge they are currently dealing with. The mentors who had observed the behaviors got to ask questions and share their feelings on what they had seen and how these behaviors can be related to the business challenge. Each session ended with practical tips.
