Towards the end of the event, they’ll all be rushing to P.J. O’Reily’s.

Tasks differ from physical challenges to problem solving pieces, even multi-sensory puzzlers and other interactive activities. They’re really fun and engaging! Moreover, they promote quick thinking, creativity, communication, teamwork, and a lot more skills applicable inside the office!

Philanthropic Team Building Events? Say What?
April 23, 2009
Assuming that you’re aware that team building events are conducted for the benefit of your people and the whole company, don’t you think it’d be better to get really good side results from a successful team building activity?

We have some excellent team building events that involve charitable aspects. One is the Bikes for Tykes, a game with an overall goal of building a bike to give to children not favored by fortune. Teams will start with no parts at all, but they can earn parts by successfully completing different challenges throughout the length of the game. Finished bikes will be inspected by qualified bike mechanics before presented to the judges. The challenges can be fully customized depending on what you want to achieve from this team building activity. They can be challenges that can hone various skills including communication, leadership, teamwork and creativity, among many other abilities you want to your people to develop.
Another of our philanthropic team building events is called The Rookie. The main objective of this activity is for teams to grow a small investment into a big pile of money. They will do this through a range of tasks they are required to perform such as busking, creating artwork to be sold, shoe shining, and a lot more money making opportunities for the public. In the end, the money earned by teams can be donated to a charity of your own choice.
We don’t have as much chance to become great heroes, but these opportunities are great to grab. If you’re ready to become an altruist even just for a relatively small amount, then schedule these team building activities with us now at 1 300 267 738!

Team Building Event Ideas For Restaurant And Suchlike Businesses
April 17, 2009
Are you a food business owner/head looking for great ideas for a team building event? We have some for you! Though you can definitely avail any of our team building events, we want to recommend two that really focuses on the business that is food.
First, we have what we call The Great Australian BBQ Challenge. This event is a version of the foodies’ favourite game show, the Iron Chef. It is a great stage for teams to challenge each other’s culinary powers, and an excellent opportunity for them to further understand teamwork and working under pressure. Through the event, teams are expected to learn how to rely on each other’s members to be able to execute all tasks efficiently. Participants should be able to develop their creative thinking, decision making, communication and interaction skills through the activity.
The Great Australian BBQ Challenge starts as teams are assigned a secret ingredient they must be able to incorporate effectively in all courses of a meal. And just like the show goes, they will then plan, prepare, cook and plate, and present their dishes on time to the judges.
Our other food business focused team building activity is the Our Restaurant Rules. At some areas, this event is similar to The Great Australian BBQ Challenge, but it is more on the whole restaurant operations aspects. The objectives of both events are alike, but this time, they will be reached by the pressure of a real life commercial kitchen. Our Restaurant Rules require teams to come up with a theme for the restaurant, produce a marketing campaign, and deliver real results in the kitchen!
Teams will be given a budget, briefed on the business and handed a list of focused initiatives, and then allotted a 30 minute period to plan their concept of a restaurant business. Aside from the budget, teams are also provided some resources and materials, but they will be given an extra hour to source more supplies just in and around the resort. After so, teams are given another hour to build, develop and practice the operations of their restaurant. They will be critiqued, but will be allowed another 15 minutes to make the final modifications and finishing touches to their presentations.
These are splendid options for your business staff, but if you want to know more about what we can offer, you can reach us at 1 300 766 879. We’ll be glad to talk to you!

April 7, 2009
The Amazing Race is one great team building activity to hold for your people. It provides a great opportunity for them to build a better relationship and in turn create a stronger team that can face any challenge, may it be at work or at play.

Speeding through each station, teams have to complete each assigned task first; tasks which may involve physical challenges, problem solving, multi-sensory puzzles, brainteasers, and interactive play.
Amazing Race around Perth will start with each person identifying their own weak points which may impede effective communication, and with them committing to improve their weaknesses that should result a positive effect on the whole team. Each team will be provided a resource kit which contains travel vouchers, some cash, maps for directions, and a copy of the rules of the game.
Once the race starts, surely all participants will be concentrating on being the first to get a clue, complete a task, proceed to the next stop, and finally finish the game. It will definitely be exciting! Completing every task successfully will leave them a cash bonus which they can use to obtain faster modes of transport.

Racing V8 Supercars For A Team Building Activity?
April 6, 2009
V8 has captured a lot of fans all over Australia, even drawing enthusiasts in nearby countries. And because of this wide admiration to the sport, we have incorporated it into a great team building event, from which the whole team can learn a lot of techniques they can apply in their work, behaviour and performance.
We recommend our V8 Peak Performance Driving team building event to groups of managers and senior executives who will be the ones to benefit the most from this experience. Through V8 we hope to teach them to communicate efficiently, to inspire their colleagues and subordinates, to interact effectively and to adapt appositely to the situation.
How it works:
There will be 3 main components of the activity: the participant, who is also the driver; his car; and the program. Back in the office, the car will represent the work processes which determine a favourable or a bad outcome. If a car is not fit to race, no matter how good at racing a driver is, he will not win. At the same time, if the work processes are efficiently carried out, then the team will be able to achieve peak performance.
Now, the driver will be responsible for the execution of techniques that will maximize the performance of the car, and of the work back in the office. The ultimate result will rely on the combined efforts of both the driver and his car. The program will serve as the training ground which will teach the participants the needed techniques to improve performance and how they can actually apply them to themselves. The race, which is part of the program, will teach them on the importance of following the right processes, of staying focused, of continually evaluating their performance and finding out which needs to be improved, of managing stress and pressure, and of applying all these in actual.
Our V8 Peak Performance Driving team building activity can be held in Queensland, New South Wales, Victoria and Adelaide. If you’re searching for the perfect team building event for your executive team, call us now at 1 300 267 738 so we can arrange a high adrenaline day of racing just for you. We can suggest other executive programs for you too.
