1. A Guide To Corporate Team Building Activities

2. When thinking about corporate team building activities
it is important to remember their purpose. As the name
suggests it is about taking people and bringing them
together, increasing their efficiency in the long term. Any
activity you choose to ought to be the right balance
between fun, learning more about each other and
helping people work together.

3. The first thing to consider is the venue. If you are on a
budget you may want to find simple activities that can
be done in the workplace without the need to book a
venue. Classic examples are getting people to work
together to build something or pitch a product.

4. For example you may have one person in your team who
is great at selling. This may be great but this may not be
so great if the reason they sell is because they cut in on
other members of the group. Ambition is good but not if
it means that other members of the group do not feel
valued.

5. For this member confidence is not an issue. However the
right activity can illustrate why cooperation and working
together is important. This then means that this
confident salesperson can also learn to use their skills in
a more positive way and work to benefit the whole
group.

6. While it can be hard to please everyone this is the best
way to get something that most people will want to do.
As the idea is to choose something people can do as a
group try to avoid anything that will exclude people as
much as possible. For example older employees are
unlikely to thank you if you expect them to run around
at a boot camp!

7. Another potential problem is the availability of your
employees. One way to get around this is to organise it
in advance as much as possible and check availability as
much as possible. Another way to avoid this is to
organise several events over the course of the year so
that everyone has the opportunity to do activities
together and get to know as broad a range of people as
possible.

8. If you are worried about setting up an event you do not
have to do it yourself. There are numerous companies
that can organise this for you. They can also guide you
through the options available and how they could
potentially benefit your team in the long term. Once you
know what is available to you it can be easier to
compare these options and find the ones that are most
appropriate.

9. Remember when organising corporate team building
activities that there needs to be a balance between
competitiveness and the bonding process. You want
people to have fun but it should be taken seriously
enough that they learn more about what they are doing.
Look online for more information as well as finding
companies that can organise appropriate events for you
and your team.
