Week 3 preparation: Team Motto

As part of our preparation for week 3, we had to finalize our team motto. So the twelve of us met online on Friday 8th for a brainstorming session on how our team logo should look like and what we would like to use as our team motto.

Our teammate Ivy was so kind to finalize our proposals into our team introduction slide. I don't want keep you from seeing it any longer, so here is the final team motto:

Team Motto of team SAP Shoroq
I guess, the text stands for itself: As one team we share one dream, mission and passion. That is to "raise together to make an impact: to connect people and improve lives". 
During our assignment, we want to share information, help each other and the client, be open, act respectful, be optimistic and deliver high quality work.

For me, the above sounds like a pretty good summary of what the social sabbatical is all about.

Let me finish the post with two missing details:
The background picture was taken during sunrise on Jebel Toubkal in Morocco, the highest mountain in Northern Africa. 
Last not least the missing piece of the blog title "SAP Shoroq in Morocco", our team name: SAP Shoroq. Directly translated from Arabic Shoroq means rise or sunrise.
So the picture and the team name shall underline our support for the country and its people as well.

I would be happy to hear what you think of our team motto and our motivation. Feel free to leave a comment. 😊

2nd weekend: Hammamgate

This weekend was all about discovering Rabat, as we will most probably be out of town the upcoming weekends. Follow me on my picture tour and be inspired to visit this nice place. We ended the last post with a riddle: what was our plan for Saturday morning that can be described with the words water, waves, boards? Exactly: Surfing! We booked a surfing training for two hours. For me it was my second time as I had one week of surfing last October in Taghazout, Morocco. Caroline and me after surfing View from the changing room After surfing, I walked once again to the Kasbah des Oudayas as I wanted to take another look at the nice white and blue colored houses and alleys. Kasbah des Oudayas With all that surfing and walking we deserved some relaxation, so we booked a session for Hammam. For many of us it was the first time to experience the islamic variant of a sauna that starts with relaxation in a hot, steamy room, followed by a full body wash and massage and e

3rd weekend: On the trails of kings and Romans

As with the previous weekend posts, I don't spend too much time on words but prefer to let pictures speak by themselves. We started the weekend in Fès, the second largest city of Morocco and the oldest of the 4 royal cities. Its Medina has been protected as UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1981. Our first stop was at the house of Mehdi's mother Fatima, who invited us for a tea and delicious pastries. From there, we were brought to our Riads, before Fatima provided a guided tour through the Medina with a lot of shopping. If you need support for bargaining, she is an absolute expert. :)  View from our roof terrace Patio of our Riad Bab Boujeloud (Blue Gate) Souk Leather tannery Leather shop After our joined dinner, we had the chance to visit the Festival de Fès de La Culture Soufie .

Week 3: Bringing the puzzle pieces together

Bild
Week 3 is already over? Time was flying by already before but this week felt like a day.  The week started with an interview with Amid, one of the mentors. He coaches the startups in communication, marketing and business strategy. After working with Maroc Telecom, he started working as a freelancer to support companies like MCISE with mentoring. He joined MCISE a year ago. Generally he meets the startups once a month for 2 hours. Last year, he supported 25 startups at MCISE. According to him their biggest challenge is the long-term vision and to think big. He is working as a mentor because he is challenged himself, he enjoys the contact with these young entrepreneurs and he loves their stories. Before he joined MCISE, he didn't know about social entrepreneurship at all, so he learned a lot from his first engagements. Finally, he left an advice for MCISE: he recommends to open up additional branches in Fès, Casablanca and especially Tangier as their are most of the internationa
