TEAM BUILDING WORKSHOP
This workshop is offered to companies that are interested in team building.
|
Under the guidance of experienced instructors
the students will work as a team to make glass objects. 8 students will
be divided in two groups, each with an instructor. Each team will have
the task to make a specific glass part. Each participant will rely on
the assistance of their coworkers to make these objects. The students
will have the option of choosing a specific color. This will help to
identify the individuals work later in the finished sculpture. The colors
provided could represent your corporate colors. The goal of this workshop
it to involve everyone in the process of making the components. A team
building camaraderie will form naturally throughout this glass blowing
process. Glass blowing requires a complete concentration and focus on
the process at hand. Three or more people can work on one piece. As
it is in the corporate world, glass blowers rely on other individuals,
and form a team to complete a task. _____________________________________________________________________________________________ |
