RUBICOM Consulting - Your kick-off partner
 

Rubicom Consulting is the ideal partner to organize your kick-off:

We have initiated project work in numerous renowned companies, advised on and assisted with the development of sustainable project structures and reliably organized roll-out measures. We have been training project managers, executives and project teams in project management approaches and methods for more than 10 years and have always been careful to emphasize the importance of cooperation within project teams.

We have our own experience of project management. That's why we also understand your needs when organizing your kick-off event.

 

Take-off in project management

In project management, the kick-off can be compared to an airplane's take-off. The kick off means everyone can really see a project is taking off. This is also when many key decisions are taken that will affect how the entire project evolves.

Risks must be eliminated, methods considered and lines of approach determined. And specialists from very different working backgrounds who don't normally work together every day must be attuned to each other within the project team.

During a project's initial phase, the kick-off thus represents a key crystallizing factor and has a major signaling effect. The way in which the project, project manager and project team portray themselves at this point will have consequences for the future development of the entire project.

For professional project management work, organizing the kick-off is therefore especially important to those with responsibility for the project.

 

Kick-off in the form of an event

For major project a kick-off in the form of an event quickly pays off. Joint outdoor activities and relaxed chats around a welcoming evening fire quickly help a project team gel together - the critical part of the project is overcome almost by the by. A common understanding of the project is reached in what is perceived as a very natural process.

With a kick-off in the form of an event, the people with responsibility for a project can avoid having to give speeches and warnings that always run the risk of giving the impression they are being imposed. There's no risk that the people who have been invited to participate are simply sitting out time.

 

Teambuilding during  kick-off

Where the kick-off calls for a high-intensity experience with team-building activities, we can organize a range of activities including rock climbing, aerial rope challenges and caving in conjunction with our cooperation partners.

A breathtaking aerial rope challenge set high among the treetops in an ancient beech forest, a series of hidden caves, deep ravines and overhanging cliffs provide an impressive backdrop for any type of kick-off event. The location is in the heart of the Swabian mountains, around a 30-minute drive from Stuttgart Airport.

On request, we will naturally also integrate outdoor activities at any other location in your kick-off event.

 

We will be pleased to help organize your kick-off:

  • Your kick-off can be organized in a seminar hotel, at a self-catering venue or incorporated into a trekking tour

  • Organization of the entire event including travel, accommodation, food and billing

  • Organization and provision of all equipment required for the kick-off event

  • Advice when drawing up your travel schedule for the kick-off and when drawing up an agenda / dramatic arc

  • Active coaching during preparation of a lively project presentation and support during the actual presentation at the kick-off

  • Moderating topics at the kick-off to ensure a results-driven discussion that is of interest to everyone and relieves the pressure on you

  • Integrated inclusion of selected team-building activities in the existing kick-off travel schedule
