Basic Bread
The great thing about bread is that it only requires you to interact with it for about 30 minutes. The rest of the time it is hanging out, doing it’s own thing and requires no input for you. A perfect activity to undertake if you are a busy person – or a group of busy people.

Notes
Within reason, bread fits into your day (or your meeting) extremely well. Further, baking bread mirrors the team building process. Flour, water, salt, and yeast on their own are nothing special. Together, however, they are bread and bread, like the highest performing team, is so much more than the sum of its parts.If you are interested in talking directly to the folk at Rude Health and/or would like to discuss a similar event with your executive team please contact us.
