Design & Client Growth Teams went to Bristol

The design and client growth teams went to Bristol for a couple of days. Check out what they got up to while they were away!

The design and client growth teams recently met in Bristol for a few days of collaboration and team building. It was an excellent opportunity for the remote workers to meet up and work together in person.

In Bristol we were able to work collaboratively and ideate on current projects Hiyield are working on.

Collaboration Workshop

We started a few days with a collaboration workshop encouraging cross-collaboration between the teams. We learned about the design thinking process: empathise, define, ideate, prototype, and test.

The teams were given made-up businesses to choose from and asked to develop a comprehensive marketing-based solution to solve the complex issues for one of the businesses using the design thinking process. Once the teams had gone through the process and created a developed outcome, they presented it to the rest of the group, and of course, a winner was picked. This was a great way to stimulate creativity, build collaboration, and create a healthy team competitive spirit.

We went bowling!

We enjoyed a fun evening of bowling at Lane 7 to break up the intensive workshop sessions. It was an excellent opportunity to relax, unwind, have friendly competition and get to know each other better.

Brand workshop

On the second day, we had an in-depth brand workshop where we met with a brand specialist. New Hiyield branding is coming, and we started by sharing who we are here at Hiyield, our fundamental values, and how we want to represent Hiyield with the new brand. We look forward to sharing a brand more aligned with our mission and vision.
