Ketel One Symbiotic Serve – The Wheel of Teal

I believe in a world where we can live and work together in a symbiotic way, where top-down hierarchies are replaced with flat networks and collective morale. Where people from all backgrounds and cultures would be seen as a whole, with their responsibilities and desires inside and outside the work place.

With my Ketel One Symbiotic Serve I want to shake up the bar top conversations around worldviews on different management styles and bring more mindfulness to work places across industries. I believe we can learn diverse approaches from everywhere between gaming and manufacturing companies to non-profits and local communities. Locally and around the world.

I'm bringing awareness of the holistic Teal future of our global community through my Mate Hospitality platform where I'm sharing ideas on how to advance in self-management and seeing people as a whole as well as encouraging following one's purpose and passion in life.

My vehicle for this journey is the Wheel of Teal – a cocktail game that shifts your perspective on how organizations could be run in the future. You can play it in the collaborative venues while enjoying my Ketel One Symbiotic Serve, made with so called ugly fruits and leftover produce. Preserving ingredients over the cold winter months is a common way of prolonging seasonality here in Finland. By pickling the summery produce I was not only able to use the leftovers but to extend their shelf life as well. And you can do it too, in your own way!

We are all different. We are all unique "ugly fruits" and we should be able to preserve our originality, now and in the future.
