On 11 October, staff from DWS – Deutsche Bank’s Asset Management business, came together for their first ever DWS MasterChef challenge at HCSA Academy. This was a great opportunity for staff to bond in a different environment.

Smells of spices filled the air while the teams raced against time to complete the 3 dishes – from preparation to cooking to plating the finished dishes, everyone was in high spirits and bonding with each other while racing to the finish line.

To complete the experience, alumni from HCSA Highpoint halfway house were invited to join DWS staff in a hearty homecooked meal.

Said Karen Chan, Chief Risk Officer, APAC: “This was a unique event that blended community service with our people engagement. The challenge brought out everyone’s team spirit and creativity to be the winning team. There was great energy and enthusiasm from all staff.”
