SUMMARY 2012

Gold Digger atmosphere with team spirit: Summary 2012
Achieved. Two days of hard work are behind us. Two days of collaboration and analyzing key issues. Two days filled with controversial and profound discussions from diverse perspectives.
Two days full of passion, hard work, and oversized mind maps. And: an extreme amount of courage, team spirit, and willingness to take new actions with the developed checklists, courses of action, and perspectives.

On Friday evening, we started with an impulsive keynote, which perhaps also contributed to the clear demands and inspirations on Saturday. This morning, we heard the theses developed yesterday and, building on them, elaborated concrete measures and guidelines in a scenario workshop for each topic group. The six presentations are already online and embedded at the end of this post. The detailed summary of results, all pictures, and the video will be available by mid-May.
It was great to see that everyone truly wanted to make a difference together, and therefore new terms were created to work in a solution-oriented manner.
For example, "Demokratur" for the integration of service providers with a certain emphasis, or "ESP" for Emotional Selling Proposition.
Right here and now, I would love to write, tell, and share so much more about everything I experienced over the weekend. Especially what came back... But for those who were there, everything has been said. I believe the feeling that repeatedly arose during the event and moved every single person cannot be put into words. Nor does it need to be. It was the team spirit that was tangibly present throughout all areas since Friday evening and also led to the conclusion of the 2012 Creativity and Future Workshop: There is a gold digger atmosphere among the participants!

So, all that remains for me is to say THANK YOU:
- to all participants, for their honest input, courage, and magnificent, results-oriented discipline
- to all moderators and mind mappers for implementing the concept
- to the sponsors and supporters, without whom DestinationCamp would not be possible
- to the diligent Helping Hands led by Stefan Dupke
- to Ute Dallmeier as host and reliable team partner
- to Stefan for the most meticulous power mind map printout
- to Oliver for organizing Saturday's evening program
- to Elvia for the tireless support in the run-up and also during set-up and dismantling
- to Ansgar and Timm from VARGO for music and technology
- to Florian from Panem et Salis for the catering
- to samova for the delicious tea (cocktail) tasting
- to Jan, Richi, and Börnie for pictures, film, and interviews
- and to everyone else who selflessly contributed to the smooth running of the event!
In the coming weeks, we will be looking for a date for DestinationCamp 2013 to keep the atmosphere and spirit fresh and thriving.
