Case Study: Victoria’s Secret
Victoria’s Secret – the largest subsidiary of Limited Brands is the country’s #1 retailer of women’s lingerie, operating more than 900 stores in the US.
The Challenge
The Victoria’s Secret Marketing Team was undergoing growth and change.
With team members in several cities, covering a multitude of projects, the Executive Director wanted to make sure that everyone not only knew each other, but was excited about working in a quickly changing environment.
The ImprovEdge Solution
ImprovEdge created a day-long retreat that not only featured team-building exercises, but challenged mixed groups to work together to solve unusual problems.
People from different offices interacted to solve common problems – discovering strengths and personalities of their peers. The day was designed to be filled with laughter and camaraderie, creating a high-energy kick-off to a new season of work and goals.
How The Solution Can Work For You
Off-sites – why are they so important?
High-performing business teams need to regularly engage in activities that challenge assumptions and take them outside their common environments. It’s a way for them to grow. To become more confident. Laughter, team challenges and exercises that uncover new levels of respect for each other can move your team from fine to fabulous.
