Recruitment that sorts the wheat from the chaff

AVEQIAs interactive cooking experience puts cooperative ability, personal engagement, communication and social skills to the test.

AVEQIAs experienced chefs lead the participants through the exercise in a way that creates a relaxed atmosphere but that also highlights group dynamics and interaction between all participants.

Interactive cooking always is a “live” experience, in contrast to many group exercises that can feel slightly simulated or contrived. In AVEQIAs interactive cooking experience your candidates are put to the test in a situation that allows their personalities to come to the fore in a natural way. As the activity gets under way, all facades fall by the wayside and you are able to observe the participants various talents and abilities emerge. You will likely see things you would not have spotted in a traditional recruitment situation.

Over the years we’ve had the privilege to help a number of clients with their final recrutiment stage – an investment that can save your company a lot of money in the long run. If you’d like to know more about this – get in touch and we’ll tell you more!

When you are starting up new co-workers it’s always nice to be able to give them a flying start; and how better to do that than with an evening packed with learning, informal networking and great food that they’ve cooked themselves? Our interactive cooking experience creates a lasting feeling of joint purpose and accomplishment.

“The art of listening is a critical skill for increased and improved collaboration”

Have you ever considered how the way you (and others) listen can affect your relationships, and in the longer perspective; the way you collaborate.

Svante Ljungberg has for many years….

Svante is passionate about making organisations function better, and for the people within them to feel better, enjoy themselves, to work effectively and that their output is of the highest quality. This passion eventually led him to Radical Collaboration….

Together with Svante AVEQIA can now offer three different lectures where you and your group explore Collaboration based on how much time you have at your disposal.

1. The first option is a 30-minute inspirational lecture with practical applications of where Svante discusses listening as a tool to build trust. The art of good listening is basic for improved collaborative skills.
2. The second option is a 60-minute lecture with practical excercises in Collaboration. Here you will find out what factors determine why collaboration works better contra worse with certain people, and what we need to do to improve our ability to create great, long term collaborative relationships.
3. The last option is a 3-hour lecture and workshop in which you and your group explore interest based problem solving. This technique provides you with tools that will increase your ability of having your interests met whilst creating good long term relationships.

“Innovation must be treated as any other mission-critical activity”

“It’s about knowing how and when to do it – but also when not to innovate”

Innovation is critical for all companies who want to stay ahead in our ever changing world, and the ability to reinvent oneself is among the best valuable properties an organisation can have. But that ability needs to be underpinned by a pro-active and systematic approach, something that is not so easy to achieve in real life….

How do you work with innovation in your company today? Do you have the need to inject a more methodic approach to your innovation processes or do you need to boost your innovative leadership?

Amplify works with companies such as Alfa Laval, Airbus, BMW, Electrolux, Ericsson, H&M, Saab Group, Siemens, Skistar, TeliaSonera among others in their effort to build innovative ability at the highest level!

Teambuilding through cooking

Interactive Cooking & Dining is a perfect teambuilding and corporate activity. The ability to collaborate and work as a team is put to the test and developed.

The participants are divided into teams that are responsible for the preparation of one dish in an overall menu that you consume together. By working under the guidance of our professional chefs you will feel the pulse of a real restaurant kitchen where exact timing and collaboration is crucial.

The focus can also be aimed at the roles and dynamics within the group to further enhance the teambuilding aspect of the activity. Interactive Cooking & Dining is exciting and challenging, but a relaxed excercise where you and your colleagues have to come together in order to achieve the final objective; relaxing and dining together as a group.
