Devision Team Building, September 2015
Devision team enjoyed a long three-day weekend in one of the most attractive historical places in Bulgaria – Arbanasi. Here are some of the highlights of what happened:
Bad weather – excellent mood
Despite the rainy weather, our team showed a positive attitude and proved that it is not the weather that matters, it is the people. Or, in other words, as one great Bulgarian author once said – “There is Nothing Better than Bad Weather”
The Challenge
Right after we arrived in Arbanasi, we had to prove our team spirit and were given the task to visit ALL major historical places in Arbanasi, together. We also had to take an interview from a local guy, take pictures with local animals and, of course, make Shopska salad and present it to the jury! Separated in two teams, we had to prove our effectiveness, smart thinking and creativity within 2 hours. And, believe it or not, it was harder than you can imagine! We can definitely say that given the small size of Arbanasi, there are A LOT OF places you can visit there! After two fun but exhausting hours, it was time for party!
The Party
We enjoyed the company of our colleagues, delicious Bulgarian food, and, of course, the unforgettable acoustic music live performance featuring Dimitar’s guitar and Petar’s accordion. It is amazing to see how multi-talented those software engineers are!
Knowledge
To take the utmost from the bad weather, our management team had organized a few useful seminars where we discussed coding best practices, work optimization and the importance of teamwork.
After such a wonderful weekend we are full with positive energy and ready for new challenges!
