This is exactly what the management of Mitra Cakrawala International (MCI) Mining, together with their business partner Cipta Kridatama, did during the Merbabu Outing from July 26th to 28th, 2024. This event was not just about climbing a mountain; it was a valuable opportunity to strengthen camaraderie and build mental and physical resilience.
With the theme “Rising to the Challenge,” this outing was attended by managers, C-level executives, and directors from both companies. They gathered with a single goal: to reach the summit of Mount Merbabu via the challenging Suwanting route. The climb became a symbol of their shared journey in the business world—demonstrating that with teamwork and strong determination, any challenge can be overcome.
Throughout the hike, the sense of togetherness grew stronger. One of the most memorable moments was when participants shared jackets and food to ward off the cold mountain air. The camaraderie was further highlighted when they waited for each other, ensuring that no one was left behind and that everyone reached the summit together. These moments truly reinforced the bond between them.
After the exhausting climb, the evening gathering was a much-anticipated event. Sitting together around the campfire, they shared stories, laughter, and experiences that deepened both personal and professional connections. It wasn’t just about reaching the peak, but also about building a stronger foundation for future teamwork.
Through events like the Merbabu Outing, MCI and Cipta Kridatama prove that the success of a team is not only measured by business achievements but also by the strength of their bonds and the spirit of mutual support. With renewed energy and stronger connections, they are ready to face the next challenge—whether it’s on the heights of Merbabu or in their career journey.
