Corporate Team Challenge - Keep the MOJO in your TEAM
Here’s your recipe for the MOST delicious challenge created by your TEAM working together.
Our chef will set up a culinary Olympics of sorts to put your team through their paces. Teams are selected at random or strategically by you, seeing all levels of staff - from every part of the business working together to take home the prize - and most importantly, the bragging rights around the office.
Although hosted by chef, and full of cooking demonstrations and professional instruction, teams must work together to plan, organise and execute their dishes - which are then judged both by their peers, and our staff!
It’s fast paced, exciting, challenging, delicious and most importantly - FUN!
Our corporate challenges are a great way to boost morale, build relationships, foster appreciation and emphasise the importance of teamwork in any business or group dynamic.
