Team-building activities can be a powerful way to unite a group, develop strengths, and address weaknesses – but only if the exercises are planned and carried out strategically. In other words, there has to be a real purpose behind your decision to do the exercise – for example, improving the team’s problem-solving or creativity skills – rather than because you felt like giving your people a nice day out of the office.
Team building activities are stimulating problem-solving tasks designed to help group members develop their capacity to work effectively together. Many team building and initiative tasks are like kids games, others are novel, complex tasks and designed for specific needs. More elaborate initiative tasks can involve ropes courses, night-time activities, and exercises lasting over several days.

Team building activities are often used in meetings, presentations, workshops, training seminars, education programs, corporate training, with college, high, middle, elementary and pre-school school groups, sport teams, teacher training, youth work, and in therapeutic and correctional settings. Team building exercises can be adapted for virtually any setting, young or old, large or small, and across cultures.

Each of our programs can be customized to the individuals/teams that participate in the activities. Combining behavior assessments with activities is more effective when developing teams and leaders compared to non-participative training. Our behavior assessments reveal better communication skills, teamwork skills, motivators and insights of each individual on your team.
