Actividades: Be it a gymkhana in the city (one of the most applied mode of team building in the US nowadays), activities in the woods, mountains or in a resort, a well organised team building is one that combines just the right amount of challenges and entertainment. A good option is to have an adventure, the most exciting and challenging possible where the participants can meet a series of challenges to victory. The emotion is ensured… Have different challenges Orientation, solving a puzzle or coded messages that indicate the next clue, physical stamina of the group, challenges that require creativity, good communication and brainstorming of the participants to solve the clues. Strengthen the interactivity and the esprit de corps but with added emotion to experience an adventure where the destiny is not know. Groups in action Divide the participants in groups and make them compete against one another. A good number are groups of five to ten persons so that they can advance more quickly and to achieve the best communication among the participants (as a larger group would require a longer time to reach an agreement among them). Equip them with haversacks with a roadmap, the necessary tools to get to the clues or with key objects that lead or help them to meet the challenge. Don’t forget to include disponsable cameras to capture the moment! Any place is good The adventure will be different depending on the place where it is held. In the woods, for example, strengthening the group orientation and challenge them to find the exact points marked in the map, where they can find the key to the next clue. In the city, why not have the good old cat-and-mice game among the group? The challenge is to ensure that the other group does not find you, via disguises, in hiding or to mislead others; the difficulty of the activity is that everyone has to achieve the same objective… but without making it known. Adrenaline in the streets! On the beach, there can also be creative challenges, such as fishing bottles with messages, on a surfboard! Measure the impact of the adventure A team building adventure requires overcoming obstacles and good coordination of the group. The objectives to achieve will be to improve the relation between the participants; inject renewed energy in the group and strengthen the confidence among colleagues; generate interesting debates in the group on how to meet the challenge or take strategic decisions or leadership; group problem-solving; motivation among themselves… and maybe the most important is that they have an exciting experience which they will remember for a long time. A grande finale To conclude the adventure, bring the groups together in one place (make sure it’s comfortable for after an intense day) to share experiences and to relax at the same time. Cater some finger food to recharge the energy and give out the prizes: announce the winner at the end and give prizes to everyone, even though it will be a consolation prize!
