1The Challenge
What was the challenge?
The team at Adani Power Plant had not been able to come together since the lockdown, so a virtual team offsite was planned by The Thought Bulb. The primary objective of the offsite was to engage and have fun with the employees and their family members.
2Our Solution
What solution did we design?
The proposed solution was to organize a Bollywood Night during the virtual offsite. Recognizing the challenges of remote work and limited communication through phones, the focus was on creating an engaging and enjoyable experience for the team.
3How We Did It
How was the programme delivered?
a) Fun Icebreakers: The facilitator started the virtual offsite with fun icebreakers to boost the team's energy levels and create a lively atmosphere. These icebreakers helped participants relax and connect with each other and their family members. b) Bollywood Competition: Participants were divided into teams and given Bollywood-themed challenges. The challenges included dancing, singing, and enacting scenes from famous Bollywood movies. This activity encouraged team members to work together, showcase their talents, and have fun. c) Rounds of Bollywood Night: The Bollywood Night was divided into multiple rounds, such as rapid-fire, dumb charades, dance face-off, and more. Each round provided an opportunity for participants to engage actively and enjoy the Bollywood-themed activities. d) Gala Award Night: The virtual offsite concluded with a gala award night in Bollywood style.
