Get the Most From Your Team Building Day and Build a Winning Team!

A team building day in itself can have a short term positive effect on morale and bonding within a group of individuals but it will remain short term if Leaders fail to establish and communicate the kind of team they are trying to build.  A "sense of team" is a different animal to an effective team, focused on achieving a specific objective.

Go back to work with real results

It's not unusual to hear participants report on their experience as having been a great team bonding experience but not contributing much to helping them achieve work goals.

There are so many activities out there - seminars, group retreats, events, meetings - billed as "team building".  To be effective, you should have a specific type of team in mind; without this, leaders and team members are quite possibly going to be disappointed.

What team building activity will work for you? 

Without a doubt, a team building activity will always deliver but your contribution will make the difference between a short term feeling of euphoria and achievement and a much longer lasting bond of commitment, participation, and focus.

To help you make the decision, we'll talk about expectations, context, the competencies required, and whether you have a committed team.  It's important to have communicated what you want from your team in terms of performance and results. 

  • Do your team feel supported by your executive managers?
  • Do your team members even know why they're on the "team"?
  • Have you told them where they fit in?
  • Do you know how their contribution will help accomplish the expected outcomes?
  • Have you got a clear idea of the commitment of your chosen team members? 
  • Do they have some expected rewards - whether monetary or skills or both?
