Christmas Crackles for Kelloggs
Custom-made, festive themed, online Christmas team event.
End-of-Year Global Challenge: Bringing Together a Remote Workforce Across 30 Countries
The Client's World
Our client, Kelloggs, a global leader in their industry, has a diverse workforce spread across 30 countries in Europe. As the year ended, they wanted to celebrate with a fun and engaging online event that would unite their 100 colleagues, despite geographical distances. The challenge? Creating a virtual event that not only entertained but also incorporated their brands and products in a meaningful way.
The Challenges We Faced:
1️⃣ - How do you create a virtual event that resonates with employees from 30 different countries, while keeping the company’s core values and products at the heart of the experience?
2️⃣ - Balancing a fun, interactive experience with a business-focused agenda.
3️⃣ - Designing a custom team challenge that would run smoothly on a virtual platform while engaging participants in a collaborative and competitive atmosphere.
The Dynamic Events Magic
The Dynamic Events team took up the challenge, crafting a tailored virtual experience that combined business objectives with engaging team challenges. Our approach was to blend interactive fun with brand relevant content, all facilitated through our award winning app.
Here’s how we made it happen:
- We listened and understood: The client’s goals were clear, they wanted an event that connected their teams across 30 countries while staying true to the company’s identity. We focused on making the experience both fun and purposeful, ensuring the activities included references to their products and values.
- We created a custom challenge: Using our cutting-edge app, we designed an interactive game that split participants into teams. The aim was simple but effective score as many points as possible within the given time. Breakout sessions via video conference allowed teams to work collaboratively on a range of multimedia challenges.
- We tailored the experience: To make the game relevant to the client, we created a unique game interface that featured their branding and incorporated content designed to communicate their end-of-year messages in a fresh, engaging way. The challenges were interactive, multimedia-based, and perfectly customised to reflect the company’s products and goals.
The Incredible Transformation
Before: The client had an ambitious vision to bring their widely dispersed teams together for a virtual end of year celebration. They needed an interactive, branded experience that would balance fun and business content while allowing remote employees to feel connected.
After: The virtual event was a huge success, keeping the audience engaged from start to finish. The event began with an hour of end-of-year business content, followed by the team based challenge that sparked energy and competition among the participants.
Beyond Numbers: Real Impact
Yes, the numbers tell part of the story:
- 100 participants from 30 countries
- Dozens of custom-designed challenges
- 1 live digital caricature session to close the event
But what really mattered was the engagement:
- Teams collaborating across borders, using breakout rooms to strategise and tackle the challenges.
- The excitement of scoring points and seeing the leaderboard update in real-time.
- The joy on participants' faces as the winning team captain was drawn live on air during the event’s finale.
Ripples of Success
The impact didn’t end when the event was over. The virtual team challenge not only brought the teams together in a fun way but also reinforced the company's core values and product knowledge through creative challenges. It served as a powerful reminder of what makes the company unique.
The Heart of What We Do
Every event gives us the chance to create connections, even in a virtual setting. This event showed us once again how the right blend of fun, creativity, and branding can turn a simple team-building activity into an unforgettable experience.
Key Takeaway: By customising our app to reflect the client’s values and needs, we created an event that not only entertained but also strengthened their team’s connection across borders.
How We Feel
This event always reminds us of the power of thoughtful planning and innovation. Creating a memorable experience that reflects a client's core values is at the heart of what we do, and this event was a true testament to that.
