Welcome back corporate warriors! It\u2019s that time of year again when resolutions are made, gym memberships renewed, and new teams are formed to conquer the challenges of the business world. If you find yourself part of a shiny new team in the new year, fear not \u2013 we are here to save the day! If someone says \u2018trust falls\u2019 I may just start a riot. New Year, new team \u2013 time for team building!<\/p>\n
Starting with a new team often means working with unfamiliar faces. What better way to for new peeps to get to know each other than being put into a group in an informal and relaxed environment where they can collaborate and have a huge amount of fun together!<\/p>\n
Nothing says \u2018new team\u2019 like a barrage of icebreakers that make you question all your life choices. There\u2019s always a Barry who is an over-sharer, who will tell you about his 3 ex-wives. And then there\u2019s a Debbie who is an introvert and would rather die than share anything about her life with a new team of people. Instead of forcing your team to divulge bizarre facts about themselves, perhaps get them together for a Game Show. They can compete against one another (you\u2019ll find out who is the most competitive VERY quickly), you can see how everyone works together and everyone learns everyone else\u2019s names (and level of competitiveness) without needing to learn about Barry\u2019s ex-wives.<\/p>\n
Conflict is inevitable in any group, especially a new one! Our team-building activities provide a platform for learning how to address some of these constructively. Wouldn\u2019t you rather your team members argue and learn how to resolve their conflicts while choosing which selfie is best in an Amazing Race than in the office environment? Learning to navigate some of these differences early on can contribute to a healthier team dynamic.<\/p>\n
A well-bonded team is always going to be a more productive team. Research has shown that pub lunches do absolutely nothing to bond your department together. We would suggest an Amazing Race, or a Corporate Olympics where everyone has fun, gets to know each other, and must work together to be crowned the winner. Cos who doesn\u2019t love a bit of competition between friends?!<\/p>\n
Establishing a positive culture is crucial for productivity and employee satisfaction. Team building activities foster a sense of camaraderie, and encourage a supportive and inclusive atmosphere where everyone feels valued and connected to the team\u2019s goals.
