New Year for RBC and 10 regions: 100 guests

An interactive video link brought the room and 10 regions together in a single live event. The programme was extended by 60 minutes.

Format:

• A New Year quiz built around communication.
• A Moscow office connected to 10 regions by video link.

• Bring in-person and remote participants together at the same pace.
• Lighten the atmosphere after a difficult period at the end of the year.

What I did:

• Designed communication challenges that engaged people with different personalities.
• Hosted the game so that regional teams played on equal terms with the room rather than just watching a broadcast.
• Maintained energy and a precise rhythm without awkward pauses.
• Managed controlled chaos: freedom within the boundaries of corporate culture.

Results:

• Even the organisers and the most cautious guests joined the game.
• Participants asked to extend the programme by 60 minutes.
• Feedback: We could do with a weekly team meeting like this!
