Innovation Festival 2018

Fast Company

Creative coaching for industry leaders...

Can planning a "bagel heist" unite a team? This creative coaching workshop for Fast Company's Innovation Festival proved that - yes! - fun, play, creativity and design thinking can enable the quick, effective mobilisation of a multidisciplinary team.

Aimed at helping executives quickly assemble multi-disciplinary teams, this workshop integrated skills assessment activities with collaborative play and design thinking approaches.

Participants learned to quickly define their key skillsets and those of others, in order to identify compatibilities. They grew their teams from these compatibilities, united by a shared goal - a bagel heist (we were in NYC after all). Through visualisation and strategic - albeit playful - planning, the new teams designed strategies for collaboration that capitalised on their unique skills.

Laughter. Creativity. Relationship-building.

By the end of the workshop, participants from vastly different industries had found surprising ways to work together and build connections that would last beyond the festival.
