With Corporate Woodworking we are all about ‘co-creation’. What’s that wee strapline all about, I hear you ask?
Well, I’ll tell you; each corporate group that comes in, come in for different reasons and as a result we ‘co-create’ with HR, L&D or whoever might be running things your side.
Here’s how some of the more popular scenarios play out:
* My team needs a fun day/X number of days, out doing something that promotes mental health, puts everyone on an equal footing, is unique and will be fun. Can you put something together for us?
Absolutely we can. I’ll need a quick chat with you to get the necessary details and I’ll put together a few options for you and we’ll go from there.
* I’ve got a small team that needs to get out of the office environment and work together on a project. I need them to be pushed and tested both as individuals and as a group, would you run anything like that?
Indeed we do. Once we’ve had a chat and firmly set out your expectations I’ll go away, talk with my team and set about creating a course that ticks your boxes as accurately as possible. Also feel free to bring in anyone else in an (Kim, I’m trying to overseer, supervisor, guy/girl who watches and takes notes capacity).
* I want to go a little left-field and push my team not in the boardroom or on a ‘lego day’, I want them completely out of their comfort zones and I would like them assessed the entire time they are with you, is this something we could put together?
It is, although we need to get our collective ducks in a row. First off I and any team members I work with are not trained in anything other than creating woodworking courses to whatever spec you desire – you want them to come in and have the best time then we excel at that, on the other hand, if you want them to struggle and be stretched then we can make it as tricky and underhand as you like. Either way, we make it bespoke to you.
Where we are not so qualified is the murky world of Coaching, Psychometrics and any personnel assessments on that score.
With this you have two options:
1, bring in your own guys to watch assess etc. We’re more than happy with that.
2, we work closely with Copperbottom & Storm McQueen Coaching who would be more than happy to talk with you.
Either way, if taking advantage of all the things woodworking brings, such as mental health benefits, the chance to accomplish something with a physical presence after your day’s labour for once, to test yourselves in an alien environment to yours, or simply to come and have a great time in the shop making stuff, we can sort it all for you.
A maximum of eight people per day at present (excluding any assessors, etc.)
Each course is priced on its own merit, so please get in touch when you’re ready.
