Q: How can I select the best possible team building facilitator to organise my event?
August 30, 2008
A: There are several things to look for before selecting a team building facilitator to assist you in putting together your team building event.
First, you want a facilitator with a high level of experience. Don’t settle for someone that’s only got a few team building events under their belt. The team building facilitator is a key player in organising any successful team building event, and you only want to hire someone with a wide range of experience.
Second, only hire a team building facilitator that is willing to build a relationship with you in an effort to organise the exact team building event your staff needs. You are the one who knows your team the best, and a team building facilitator of any quality will utilize you for the resource you are.
And third, try to find a team building facilitator that can offer you a variety of team building activities to choose from preferably ones that are easily malleable to suit any team. This will help ensure that your unique team will be participating in a unique team building event that was created just with them in mind.
If you find a team building facilitator with these main qualities, you’ll be able to rest assured that you can trust your team building event in their capable hands! To talk with a team building facilitator that fits all of these qualities and more, just call 1 300 267 738!

When Choosing a Team Building Facilitator, Make Sure to Choose Someone That Will Be Personally Involved From Start to Finish
August 14, 2008
When you’re creating a team building event, selecting a facilitator that is involved on a one on one basis is essential. If your team building facilitator doesn’t communicate with you directly, all the time, she/he won’t have a true understanding of what you and your team require.
When team building facilitators don’t understand what goals and objectives you’re trying to meet, what type of team you have, the problems you’re trying to work on, etc, unfortunately, your team building event will likely be far less than what you were expecting, and worse, your team will probably not find much benefit in the activities.
But, when you work with a company that provides one on one communication with the same team building facilitator throughout the event organisation process, your team building activities will far surpass your expectations!

Bringing out the Best in Your Staff through Team Building Activities
July 20, 2008
When you arrange for your employees to participate in regular team building activities and events, you’ll give each of your staff members the opportunity to give their best. And, when each team member is able to see the best in both themselves and their other team members, it will increase their ability to bond and interact positively both during the team building activities and back at the office.
When your team only has the opportunity to see each other at the office they often don’t realize all the different strengths and skills their fellow staff members possess. Team building activities can help bring these positive skills out for everyone to see, and for the teams benefit as a whole.
Team building activities can also help each individual realize positive qualities about themselves they didn’t know were there before. This builds confidence and self esteem for your team members, which are both important qualities for success in the office environment.
Bringing out the best in your team is easy when you arrange for them to participate regularly in team building activities. To schedule a team building event or activity for your employees, all you need to do is call 1 300 267 738. We’ll help you arrange the optimal team building events to help bring out the hidden strengths in your team.
Q: Should I hold separate team building activities for my executive team?
July 11, 2008
A: Holding separate team building activities for your executive team, while not required, is definitely a benefit. In many ways, they are a separate team from your general staff, and as such, scheduling team building events for just your executive team can be a great way to help them help the rest of the staff.
Providing time for your executive staff to get to know each other better, and work on team building skills will also help them to feel a sense of support and unity; which is essential for your executive team to function in a healthy way.
There is a lot of stress on your executive team. They fill the roles of both employee and boss, and therefore hold a unique position in the company. Holding special team building activities for your executive team is a way to help them build relationships among themselves and create a more cohesive support system and decision making body.

How Do Team Building Activities Promote Staff Bonding?
June 29, 2008
One of the benefits often touted of team building activities is that they promote bonding among team members; but how?
Well, the office environment isn’t the easiest to get to know people in. You’re not really supposed to socialize much, since you are there to get assignments done. And, the workplace can often be filled with stress and competition. These aren’t the best conditions in which to facilitate team bonds!
But, if you get your team out and into a new environment with team building activities, you provide them with the opportunity to see each other in a new light. They’ll have the chance to learn new things about each other, and in many instances new things that they have in common!
Also, the competition that’s associated with some team building activities is a really healthy way to address the competition at the office. Your team members can get these feelings out during the team building activities; so that everyone can join forces successfully back at the office.
And, last but not least, team building activities give your team the chance to build shared experiences and memories. By participating together in various team building activities, your team members get to be silly, laugh, and have an awesome time with each other, one that they will all remember positively. These feelings and experiences will follow them all back to the office where they will serve to create bonds among team members that support increased productivity and office morale.
If your team could do with some bonding (and fun) time, call 1 300 267 738 and arrange a team building day. We can help you choose events catered specifically to your team’s needs, and we offer only proven, successful team building activities; activities that will help your team function more cohesively through experiences that promote bonding.
The Advantages of Team Building Activities for a New Team
June 17, 2008
When you need to create a new team, planning some team building activities can be a great way to begin. Team building activities can help build feelings of unity and empathy through shared experiences among your team members. These are some of the most important ingredients of a successful team, and are often not present in new teams. You can provide your team with opportunities to bond and create shared memories through holding team building activities.
When teams participate in team building activities, even teams with many years together learn new things about each other, it’s no wonder they are so helpful for new teams. When team members have the opportunity to get to know each other in the fun, relaxed environment that is created through team building activities, they can begin to relax with each other at the office as well. Communication will increase, competitive behaviors will decrease and your team will be able to begin working together in an even more productive way.
Team building activities also support new teams in testing out their decision making skills, their ability to utilize each member’s strengths and weaknesses, and to learn how to effectively communicate with each other.
If your new team needs a bit of a boost to get things going, or your just wanting to make a team building activity part of your new team’s orientation, ring 1 300 267 738. We’ll provide everything from set up to clean up and you and your team need only worry about having a good time together!
