After working with Team 7, team 8 has just arrived, with five new different perspectives, mingling Portuguese people with a Scottish, a Brazilian and an Italian. This will be the team in charge for the next three months!
For three hours we worked together co-creating a session that would allow everyone to get to know better, to create a trusting environment with the others allowing a certain group felling. We started working with first impressions. The importance of knowing where to find the other was highlighted. There was an opportunity to understand what we have to offer to the group and what do we look for in others. We explored creativity and curiosity, sharing expectations and wishes.
The group finished the session more aware of the surrounding setting, of the others’ presence and of the importance of their own place.
This is how they saw us: http://arrebitaporto.blogspot.pt/2014/01/roof-structure-check.html.
Another good day for moving and getting to know people that make the world go round!
What the team took from the session:
- Insight on the team & myself.
- I work with really good people and I'm not as socially awkward as I think.
- Feel more precious about my time in Porto.
- Attention to the others.
- I take a small read of the group personalities and a better knowledge of what we all got to offer.
- Feeling almost at home.
- Knowledge and a way to connect/approach the team.
