Reveal hidden talents and skills

The Team Building with Cookery events from JamBerry, are designed to use the experience of cookery to provide a backdrop to developing a team experience that will be both rewarding and remembered. We use Cooking to bring out a range of hidden talents and skills not always seen in the office!

For clients who want a little more depth to the day, we back it up with good solid theory about teamwork. Our Leadership and Team Development Workshops might include the 4 stages of team development: forming, storming, norming and performing. We can also add team and individual analysis through tools such as PRISM, Myers Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI), or Belbin. 

So if you want to use cookery as a background to a more involved training and development workshop, or just as a great office awayday, we can provide the experience for you. Our Team Building with Cooking workshops are great for team bonding and team development, or as icebreakers or energisers at conferences. They can make team building days out fun and memorable.

Meeting your business needs

Cooking experiences can either be half or full days and can incorporate a range of development options that cover Team Bonding or Team Building, dependent on the type of experience and depth of team building development that is required. We don't just throw everyone into an experience. We back it up with good solid theory about  team development and if appropriate, we can tie in the experience with development on subjects such as communication skills or leadership.

This means that these workshops can be very versatile, meeting a wide range of needs from team members to team leaders.

The options include:

The Quick Cook Team Event
