Structure
Our internal design teams work with you to make Attendees are separated into teams and given one or more canvases to paint, as well as a detailed diagram showing how their canvas(es) should look upon completion. Then, much like a painting class, the team building participants must visit an “Art Shop” to collect the resources they need including paints, trays, brushes and more. Over time, teams become aware that the true purpose of the activity is to practice communication and collaboration, with each canvas containing one part of a greater image. Once participants have finished their paintings, the event reaches its finale when each canvas is slotted together on a frame, creating a single piece of artwork built through cooperation and unity.
The Colossal Picture will then be divided into individual frames which need to be measured, drawn, scaled and painted by each team. Once all the individual frames are hung together, the activity will conclude with “The Colossal Picture” reveal and a team photo.
Outcomes
Whether your organisation is small, medium or a global organisation, good teamwork, comradery and communication are the foundations for success. The Colossal Picture is a great way of encouraging employees to see how important they are in the bigger picture, no matter how small their individual role is.
