Heptathlon - multidisciplinary goal achievement

In our daily work we commit ourselves to goal achievement by our team as a whole. Important elements for success are our interdisciplinary collaboration, cross boarder visions and having fun doing what we do. So, why not convey this to the growth generator and go a step beyond?

We have set the goal to raise funds for the growth generator by cooperating in the team. In a cross boarder event, touching three different countries (CH, DE, AT), we have performed a multi-disciplinary race consisting of seven different events: running, swimming, waterskiing, cycling, inline skating, mountain biking and rowing.

As not all of us are well-trained athletes, this event offered the opportunity to our team members to implement some fun changes in their lives by preparing for a good individual performance on their track.

For the fund raising we have created a special formula that is based on the individual athlete’s estimate of hers or his time for the stage. In the case, where the athlete beat his/her own estimate, the rest of the team was to contribute to the growth generator. If the athlete missed his/her estimated time, it was up to her or him to donate. This has not only made this a most exciting event, but also assured us of a donation guarantee.

We welcome our latest addition to the team of athletes: Mirjam. She will do the running and, as she is a well-trained athlete, we found it appropriate to extend the running track. Therefore, we have updated the running map on our page.
