The corporate jungle is a tough place to find yourself, particularly if cannot rely on your co-workers to work strongly and cohesively. Let us improve the lines of communication in your work team with a baking class! Every participant must listen to and work with their colleagues in order to complete a series of tasks and challenges. At the end of the day you leave a bit closer to one another, with a large bread crocodile....
Don’t know if the people you work with are on the same page as you? Why not work it out over a giant, crocodile-shaped loaf of bread?
We have designed a 3 hour workshop focused on strengthening ties and opening-up the lines of communication between colleagues through the ancient craft of artisan baking. This experience will give you not only the background knowledge of what goes into making a great loaf of bread, but the skills to communicate, co-operate and articulate your way to team (and bread) perfection!
The class begins with an explanation of the bread making process. Why do we use a natural yeast Starter? What does cold fermentation entail? What is proofing?
With the necessary theory firmly under your belt you progress to hands-on activities in the form of mixing, kneading and shaping dough. The team will be set a series of tasks during the workshop that demand co-operation and communication from everyone taking part. The exercise culminates in each team member contributing the dough they have prepared to the construction of a monstrous, crocodile shaped loaf of bread.
