Team building tasks

Working together as a team and having fun at the same time!

Why team building?

Professional teambuilding is an effective motivation tool and an important building block of organizational development. Typical situations in which team training has proved effective are company mergers, restructuring or management changes, that is, situations in which new teams have to become an effective functional unit as soon as possible.

With the various stations/modules in our team building stations, participants learn how to

• communicate and cooperate more efficiently with each other
• solve complex tasks by adopting a completely new approach
• tackle unusual situations together and have fun at the same time.

Our definition of team building is working together and having fun at the same time!

Our team building tasks are suitable for existing teams as well as for new teams.

You can choose from a pool of various modules.

Here are a few examples:

Tower of Power

IEight vertically-placed building blocks have been placed on the floor in a certain area. These have to be built into a tower using a crane. The tricky part is that all the participants have to work together to steer the crane by means of the ropes to which it is attached. Each participant takes hold of an end of a rope attached to the crane. During the activity, the participants are not allowed to touch the building blocks with any part of their bodies. (The crane is steered by all participants at the same time along the ropes. Placing the building blocks on top of each other to form the tower requires a great deal of concentration.)

Chain reaction – the Domino Event

Suspense and excitement can be experienced at first hand when the players carefully position their colourful blocks. The task is to create a world of dominos in a limited time. Just like in real life, several different small groups work together on one section of the entire project. During their work, they will face many challenges and must meet certain guidelines. Will the group manage to place the domino blocks in such a way that they all fall down at the end?

Ice sheet

The aim of the game is to lead every team participant across an imaginary ice sheet in the form of a chessboard within 15 minutes. The ice is only stable enough on some of the fields, the others contain thin ice, liable to give way at any moment! There is only one path to safely cross the ice, which only the game organizer knows about. This brain-teaser requires the concentration of every team member.

Pipeline

The group is given the task of transporting a ball over a certain route to an agreed goal. The ball should not be touched by anyone during the game.To help transport the ball, the participants use a pipeline, a system of bisected plastic tubes, which can only be used according to certain pre-arranged rules determined by the participants. Will they be able to complete the project successfully?
