Especially in Asia at this time of year, many companies find themselves initiating fresh projects and assembling new teams. During these transitions, it becomes imperative to establish a platform for building team capabilities and having honest and open discussions regarding company and project directions. BentoBox modules serve as a vital support system for such crucial moments.

A Case Study
“We were able to articulate, at a profound level, the sources of our strengths and the significance of preserving and fortifying them.”
We recently facilitated a discussion forum at one of Japan’s largest professional service agencies. The BentoBox was used to delve into the trajectory of a new business division—a cornerstone of their medium-term management plan.
Background:
- Organizational restructuring has given rise to a blend of diverse cultures within the organization.
- Collective discussion with the whole new business management team needed to be conducted.
The goals of the BentoBox sessions were:
- To convene the core members of the new business and explore their collective aspirations and the services they intend to provide.
- To foster an egalitarian discussion, leveraging the BentoBox methodology to guide the discourse.
- To integrate members from varied cultural backgrounds into a strong and cohesive team.
The new business management team convened for a day-long BentoBox module known as Imagining Bold New Futures (IBNF). This module helped the team to set their direction, and a shared vision among members was deepened.
Participant Feedback:
- “The exploration of four dimensions of organizational competence proved immensely valuable in comprehending the perspectives of team members regarding the organizational landscape, paving the way for subsequent discussions.”
- “We were able to articulate, at a profound level, the sources of our strengths and the significance of preserving and fortifying them.”
- “I appreciated the approach of amalgamating the company’s values with my personal values, alongside analyzing internal and external needs and advantages.”
- “We realized that while we dedicate ample time to team-building exercises with our clients, we often overlook investing similar efforts in strengthening our internal teams, thus reaffirming the value of such endeavors.”
- “I was amazed at how the BentoBox is so carefully designed. Participants can derive a fulfilling experience even when self-navigating the module like a game, without need for a facilitator.”
