Once there, we found a lot to discover. Among other things, an adjacent forest filled with various facilities for teambuilding exercises. The rooms were settled and shortly afterwards the seminar of the Wicke Akademie began. Our seminar leader, Mr Linke, eased the tense atmosphere in just a few minutes, as some trainees hardly knew each other due to the separate departments and buildings. Monday was filled with varied team games in the forest. The first exercise, "seesaw", broke the ice and we all literally got closer to each other. The special thing about these exercises was the structure. Each exercise had a planning phase in which everyone could have their say and express ideas. Then the "execution phase" began, in which the exercise was carried out with a time limit, and finally there was always a discussion or feedback round about positive, but also negative things. More exercises followed, which often went very well, but also some in which we exceeded the time limit, for example. But we always continued until all trainees reached the goal of the exercise. There were also exercises that were carried out with a blindfold, which demanded extreme trust in the respective colleague, as we could only reach the goal together.
