The Taste of Others
Understanding our unconscious reflexes to work better together
(Conference/workshop)
April 17. 1961.
The bay of Pigs. Cuba.
American warships approach the coast. The objective: overthrow Fidel Castro. A mere formality, according to the CIA.
But nothing goes as planned.
The strategy was riddled with blind spots, yet within President Kennedy's inner circle, nobody spoke up to prevent the disaster.
A year later, Kennedy and his team faced the consequences of this mistake under the looming threat of nuclear war. But this time, they made history by preventing escalation.
What made the difference? What did they do differently?
An immersive (and sensory) eye-opening experience
Step into this historical turning point for an (imaginary) diplomatic and gastronomic evening.
The mission? Taste four chocolates, communicate, and collaborate to avert a diplomatic crisis.
This hands-on workshop builds awareness on subconscious behaviors we all tend to have when collaborating under pressure.
Concrete tools to work better together
Experience the same pitfalls that Kennedy's team faced, and discover how they successfully changed their approach.
You will leave with practical tools to solve complex problems in high-stakes situations: pinpointing miscommunications, breaking down information silos, and fostering constructive dissent.
In just 90 min, unlock a structural cognitive realignment that empowers collaboration and boosts team performance..
