One of the most popular and beautiful events of the world are undoubtedly the Brazilian carnival parades. In just few minutes of progression, you can experience a magical scenario mixed with musicality, beauty and enchantment.
But have you wonder about what happen behind the scenes? In order to create and keep this fantastical atmosphere, elements such as passion, professionalism, talent, rhythm, training, hard work, punctuality, discipline and a lot of creativity are required to manage the parades.
How all these concepts could be applied in a corporative environment? The answer comes with a playful experience within a kind of a “corporative” Samba School, with the connection of samba school roles and general staff management concepts.

In 1994, Master Adamastor was already known as a successful drums leader when his Samba School has won the Carnival in São Paulo. Along his professional life, he realized how his musical experience would be applicable in a lot of corporative fields, especially in a strategic staff management.
So, get ready to emerge into a new universe and to see how fascinating is managing talents and people.

A different “Samba School”
In an auditorium, the participants can’t imagine what is about to occur. Master Adamastor introduces himself to the audience as an ordinary panelist. Gradually he starts to gain the empathy and his charisma reaches out the public.
He invites everyone to interact and to get rid of shyness or any kind of resistance. The public starts to realize how important the involvement is, with his positive, outgoing and assertive attitude.
Suddenly, a countdown similar to heartbeat begins…Once the countdown is finished; the sound of samba drums commands the frontlines live on stage!
The audience instantaneously gets marveled and surprised. They start to wonder what that percussive music is related with the lecture.

When the sound stops, Master Adamastor reveals his real identity. The musicians and also the instruments, with its respective functions, are introduced by him. On this specific moment, Adamastor talks about values such as “passion for what you do”, “the importance of a collective to get harmonic results”.[/one_third]

Now, it is time for samba! The audience is split in teams and each of them is assisted by a specialist tutor. They teach how to play the instruments and how it works. Aspects such as teamwork, leadership, and creativity are strongly stimulated at this stage of the activity.[/one_third]

Besides learning how to play the instruments, participants will learn how to create costumes, compose lyrics, coordinate harmony and choreography as well as rehearse together. The potential of each is worked out to overcome the challenge to perform, in a short period, new and complex tasks. These elements make all of them work with focus and responsibility. The assessment is made based on group performance what stimulate the teams to be attuned with each member as a real samba school. If one of the members fails, the result may be compromised. This is the moment to overcome the barriers individually and collectively.
Once the job is done, the big moment comes up! It is time to see the teams acting as a real Samba School. Governed by a whistle and under Master Adamastor’s supervision, the teams will show what they have learned. Enthusiasm, passion, harmony and swing are essential to get the best marks (0 to 10) and qualify the teams, as in real parades.
Celebration concert
[one_half]
Finally, Master Adamastor asks everyone to leave the instruments and celebrate a proper samba school concert with all real elements as couple of samba hosts and flag-bearers, samba dancers, choreographers, costumes and baianas’s ward (homage to the archetype of folkloric women from Bahia with their traditional clothing on the parades). The teams are welcomed to a big party and celebrate the results conquered with this life experience.
In the moment of debriefing, everyone listens to what Adamastor have to say. “With a harmonic teamwork, mixing different realities and values, the results can reach beyond the expectations” he says. On this atmosphere, he invites one or two managers for a symbolic moment: the flag delivery (with the logo), which for a samba school is the highest representation.[/one_half]
