# S1 Soapbox Derby

> Strategy and project management combine where competing teams battle it out to create, build and race their very own pedal-powered soapbox kart.

- **Experience Format:** In Person
- **Group Size:** 8 - 300 Guests
- **Duration:** 2.5 - 3 Hours
- **Key Benefits:** Collaboration, Morale boosters

## How it works

We provide your teams with a specially constructed frame and a mixture of raw materials which they can use to build their soapbox racer. Team members need to organise themselves into various job roles within the task. First things first – the teams need to hold a fundraising pitch to available sponsors. Once the finance is secured, teams must design and build their kart before getting ready to race.

This event mixes innovation, presentation, communication, and construction skills for a truly rounded interactive business game. This is one experience where strategy and project management come to the fore.

Large tasks need to be broken into smaller ones, and teams must pull together to win. It’s a near-perfect shared experience activity. Have some fun while improving on the fundamentals of workplace collaboration.

## Learning Outcomes

### Collaboration

Improving collaboration across a team is probably the number one way we can help to improve a team’s performance. If you don’t communicate, you can’t collaborate. We start with communication and get it flowing, then get everyone working together. We have found that creating long-term change in the way teams collaborate can be as simple as getting them into a creative frame of mind. Whether the team task is to work together or compete is up to you.

### Morale boosters

Our morale booster experiences are designed to inspire new patterns of thinking across a team or even a whole organisation. They can be both fun and motivating, help with employee engagement, stimulate creativity, and are great for those all-important shared experiences.
