1/ The @beondeck March Fellowship Virtual Kickoff was inspiring. We believe anything you can do in-person, you can find a creative way to do remotely.
Here are some highlights 👇
2/ Converting our in-person overnight kickoff retreat to a fully virtual one called for creativity...
Virtual Carpools! 🚗
Fellows traveled together to the "venue" in style, getting there via:
- Ferrari 🏎
- Train 🚂
- Airplane ✈️
- Racecar 🏁
3/ As Fellows joined our @zoom_us room they were
- Auto-split into 5-person breakout groups
- Encouraged to screenshare driving videos
- Picked the music to put "on the radio" (ie @Spotify)
We suggested conversation topics, time flew by & all arrived safely! 😇
4/ The award for “Most Dedicated Fellow” at the @beondeck Virtual Kickoff goes to a fellow who tuned in at 3:41am all the way from Nairobi, Kenya! 🇰🇪⏰
5/ When organizing a @zoom_us call with 150 people, you're bound to hit Zoom Bingo pretty fast.
Shoutout to @caffeinatedwes on claiming the win 5 minutes in ❌🙋♂️🏆😂
6/ There’s no time for dry breakouts here. We played charades, pictionary, the one and only @eriktorenberg led a 🔥 Freestyle Rap workshop which spilled over into the comment 🗣🎙
7/ Every On Deck Fellow has a family within a family — a small “squad” of 7 others. Our goal is that you leave with 8-10 “strong ties”, and 50-60 “loose ties.” a 45 minute breakout helps lift the hood and set #SquadGoals
8/ We decided to open-source our playbook for hosting an 150-person virtual retreat.
