Cradle Cultural Culinary Adventures: The Power of Lunch and Learn Sessions
The last Tuesday of every month we run our highly anticipated, lunch and learn sessions. Each month a new member of staff organises and cooks’ lunch, often showcasing their cultural culinary background. The lunch also offers a platform for a bit of show-and-tell, could be an amazing experience, an insight into a cultural holiday, or impart some expert knowledge or skill.
The Lunch and Learn Sessions have amazing benefits:
Skill Exchange: When staff members take turns organizing and cooking lunch, they bring their unique cultural flavours to the table. Imagine savouring homemade sushi, fragrant Indian curries, or comforting Italian pasta—all while discussing some inspiring subjects!
Team Culture: These sessions foster a collaborative work environment by bringing everyone together in an informal, fun environment. Sharing meals and stories creates a sense of camaraderie and togetherness.
Professional Development: Beyond the food, lunch and learns provide opportunities for skill development. Whether it’s learning about sustainable design or mastering new software tools, our team benefits from these knowledge-sharing moments.
Networking: Breaking bread together encourages open dialogue. Staff members can discuss projects, exchange ideas, and build stronger connections.
Creativity Boost: Trying diverse cuisines sparks creativity. Just as architectural designs draw inspiration from different cultures, our lunchtime discussions inspire fresh ideas.
So, let’s break bread, celebrate diversity, and build stronger bonds!
