Star Sqaud Series 2008

Venue: K. V. Resort, Karnala

The “Star Squad Series” is a team building program to encourage interaction between the IIPM- Planman staff and students. In its second year SSS-2 had participation from over 100 students and nearly 10 IIPM-Planman staff. The event was organized with the aim to develop the ability to coordinate and communicate in a team of 15 people who have different backgrounds.

Though the training program was scheduled the 12th of February the ice breaking session was carried out on the 9th of February where in the team members were introduced to each other and were given their very first task of creating their own brand name logo and slogan with the basic materials provided to each team. Painted face, weird tag lines, roars and howls were order of the day. The day was exciting. It was just beginning. Six teams were lined up for 12th of the month.

7:00 a.m. and an unusual sight outside the IIPM campus- a crowd of more than 100 people gathered, waiting to head to K. V. resort Karnala. The event began with a formal badge ceremony for all the Captains (IIPM & Planman staff) & Vice captains (Student representative). The training games were then played with all the teams- each teaching the participants about a new learning.

The training program ended with the award ceremony where the wining team was awarded with Gold medals. Each team also voted for the Best Team Member who was honored with medal. As a token of remembrance each participant was given a slam book with their team picture on it.
