TEAM BUILDING
Art of freedom
The arts have long been recognized for their power to heal, provide tranquility during the chaos, and keep the mental clouds estranged. It just might be what your team needs to clear their minds of the financial, redundant strategic, operational demands that are part of organizational life.
Art is more than aesthetic. It has a positive–and powerful–physiological impact on the brain and proven to help reduce blood pressure while improving one’s focus and outlook on their job or about life in general. Which in turn leads to a less stressful work environment and happier and productive employees.
According to a major new IBM survey of more than 1,500 Chief Executive Officers from 60 countries and 33 industries worldwide, chief executives believe that -- more than rigor, management discipline, integrity or even vision -- successfully navigating an increasing complex world will require CREATIVITY.
For your organization, bringing art into the workplace is one way that you can improve the well-being and morale of your own team, and your entire organization.
Art will help your team look at something with a different perspective by stimulating creativity and thoughtful observation. Art can help the work environment feel more inspiring.
OUR PROGRAM: ART OF FREEDOM
Meet Joel Bermano- the international top-selling artist who has created an inspirational and motivational program that gives people permission to express themselves through the creative power of art. Using art as a connecting tool he has successfully created programs for companies such as Soho House and WeWork. To get the real feels and nuance of these event, please make sure to check out the recap.
Unlike the traditional painting events where everyone copies the same painting, The Art Of Freedom encourages people to express themselves through their own special creativity. You can literally see the change of energy and the unfolding of expression as the program unwinds. Truly leaving everyone more amazingly positive and inspired.
We start the program with a short inspirational talk from Joel Bermano, the New York City- based successful artist. Joel has exhibited at Art Basel, Monaco, London and South Africa. His long- term past battle with anxiety and depression not only licenses him to speak overcoming mental illness but makes him a remarkable motivating figure to everyone he comes in contact with.
From inspiration, we then move into bonding.Trust amongst colleagues is hugely important for morale and this is why teamwork and collaboration at work should be encouraged. The Art of Freedom collaborative paintings allows teams to work together and create a one of a kind artwork that can then be hung in your corporate office reminding them of this mutually rewarding experience. Teamwork strengthens relationships with both leaders and colleagues, leading to a happier, more engaged and productive workplace.
Once the team building exercise is complete individuals will be given the opportunity to create their own painting. This exercise will literally melt stress away and help employees feel more motivated in the workplace. Painting has been highly associated with easing the symptoms of mental health like anxiety and depression. Creatively is needed now more than ever— ‘If you’re a human being living in 2017 and you’re not anxious, there’s something wrong with you.'
The program comes complete with paint, brushes, take home easels, canvases, gift bags, limited edition Bermano prints, set up, clean up and music.
