A good team is the foundation of a good corporate culture. And team building — or teambuilding — is a pleasant activity that contributes to improving social relations in the company and defines roles within the team in carrying out common tasks.
Teambuilding can take many forms. Some work teams prefer a quiet friendly sitting over a glass of good wine, others prefer bowling. However, if you are one of those who want to experience something unusual in corporate teambuilding, read the following tips on original teambuilding activities.
Homeless teambuilding
Structured Homeless Pentathlon. This is how the organizers from the Pragulic project describe the original teambuilding experience. If you want to consolidate your team under the guidance of a street person who will teach you a lot of practical skills that are related to the subject of your work, sign up. As stated by the organizers, this teambuilding will provide you with tasks from marketing, logistics, sales, finance and human resources. However, do not expect any work with numbers when performing a task in business and finance. Get ready for fundraising in the form of street art or selling items found in a container. And sometimes you don't experience that.
Original teambuilding or escape game in all ways
Escape rooms are a popular team building activity. Let yourself be locked in a room, look for clues, solve puzzles and get out of the room within the specified time limit. The offer of escape games is no longer just a variety of themes, but today you can also choose whether you want to play an escape game with colleagues physically or virtually. So there are both online and offline options to choose from. For the online variant, you usually just need to install the application and you can start playing.
The Treasure Hunt
A bit of a return to childhood or a treasure hunt. So today, a somewhat modernized concept that includes working with a tablet and GPS navigation. But the principle is still the same. Follow the map, complete tasks, reach the destination and find the hidden treasure. This strategy game will not only test the knowledge of you and your colleagues, but also train your decision-making skills and time management.
Tasting
You don't just have to taste wine. You can strengthen working relationships with your colleagues even during the original tasting menu. Whether it's tasting rum, chocolate, whiskey or other drinks and snacks, your team will appreciate it. You can also sample with your colleagues from the comfort of your office. The offer of original team buildings already includes online tastings. You will receive a package of chocolate, wine or something else, along with a link to an online meeting where experts will tell you more about the tasting drinks and delicacies. And often during the tasting they will also provide you with a fun thematic quiz.
Original teambuilding? Become a test pilot
Do you want to be a helicopter or plane pilot for a day? Want to try landing at Ruzyne airport? And all this in the presence of your colleagues? Today, this type of teambuilding is also available on the market. It may not be the cheapest experience, but it is certainly worth it. An experienced instructor will tell you how to do this and in his presence you and your colleagues can try out for yourself what it is like to pilot an aircraft.
