A Team Building Event Specifically Designed for Your Executive Team

November 20, 2008

While many team building events are great for executive teams and general staff alike, Executive Adventure is designed specifically for the unique needs of your executive team.

This team building event is an overnight excursion into the beautiful Lockyer Valley, just an hour south of Brisbane,  and will take place on a 10,000 acre working cattle ranch.  Your executive team will get to get out of the hustle and bustle, far away from the office, and have a unique experience together that will facilitate the development of team building skills like conflict resolution, building and maintaining trust, giving effective feedback and much more.

Activities during this 24 hr event are designed to be based on “survival skills” like finding their own food (clay pigeon shooting), navigating the vast trail system to find their lodgings, and befriending horses for transport.  The key is that all participants must work together to be successful in these endeavors.

At the end of the event, your team will be presented with an evaluation of their performance and strategies for improvement from the facilitator that was with them through the experience.  And, most important of all,  after this team building event is complete, your executive team will be functioning better than ever and will have mastered skills essential to their successful management of their own teams.

To schedule this special event for your executive team just ring 1 300 267 738; everything will be provided including food, fun and facilitation by an expert in team building, and, the success of this event is guaranteed!

Corporate Survivor Team Building Event Idea

June 2, 2008

If you are looking for an excellent team building event for your office staff in Brisbane, or even for your next conference, Corporate Survivor could be it! If you’ve seen Survivor on TV you can get the basic idea for this event, however, instead of individuals within the team “surviving” it is the whole team’s survival that matters!

Once everyone has arrived to this team building event in Brisbane, they are broken up into tribes, and given colored bandanas (to denote tribe membership of course!). Then, the tribe will create a name for itself. After all these formalities, the tribes are off on the first Tribal Challenge.

Some of the options for Tribal Challenges include Water Transfer, in which tribes compete to see who can get the most water from the well into their water tub, using a leaky bucket! Or Red Adair where tribes compete to extinguish an oil fire that threatens their food stores; the twist is, the tribe is only given a rope, a hook and a few simple instructions. Then there is the Riddler! Tribes must answer a series of general knowledge questions, and if they get them correct, each tribe member is permitted the opportunity to pop an “immunity balloon” of a member of another tribe, who got the answer wrong.

All of the different tribal challenges of the Corporate Survival team building event are made to bring out the best of your staff. The tribal challenges are fun, yet also designed to provide opportunities for your staff to practice decision making skills, creativity, unity, and communication skills. With this unique team building event, you may even have the opportunity to learn something new about your staff members!

The winner of this team building event is determined by how many immunity balloons each team has, and of course the team with the highest amount wins! Turning Survivor into more of a team sport, has made us able to offer a unique team building event that will surely help your staff reach its goals, as well as become a more cohesive team.

If you are ready to arrange the Corporate Survival Team Building Event for your next team building day or conference in Brisbane, ring 1 300 267 738, and we’ll be happy to work with you to create the bests team building event for your specific needs!

Using a Corporate Golf Day to Work on Team Building Skills

May 24, 2008

Have you been thinking about a fun, relaxing corporate golf day for your team? Holding a corporate golf day in Brisbane, or anywhere else in Australia for that matter, can be an excellent way of engaging and/or rewarding your team.

By bringing everyone together for an enjoyable day of golf, it is also possible to create opportunities to work on team building skills. In an environment such as this, team building skills like communication, decision making and even conflict resolution can be addressed, while everyone still has a memorable and exciting day.

Another way of turning a Brisbane golf day into an opportunity to address team building skills is to use it as a fundraiser for the company’s favorite charity. Everyone can compete in mini-tournaments and raise money through pledges for how many balls they can hit in a certain amount of time, with their left (or non-dominant) hand, or other type of mini contest. Fundraising like this can address team building skills by helping to cultivate positive feelings of unity and purpose among participating staff as a result of helping others in need. Staff will then be able to take this back to the office as a shared experience that helps facilitate bonding among team members.

If your interested in finding out more about how a corporate golf day in Brisbane or any other location in Australia can give your staff an opportunity to work on their team building skills, call 1 300 267 738. The awesome staff at Sports Corp Elite can help you create the perfect way for your company to work on and develop their team building skills – while having a great time too!

Race Around Brisbane - Team Building all over Brisbane

January 15, 2008

brisbane race around

This amazing team adventure is a fusion of group think, interactive challenges and a race against time across, through and over the streets, river and bustling CBD of Brisbane.

The adventure includes team challenges, physical challenges, and problem solving tasks, team building challenges and interactive game playing. By using the template of The Amazing Race in conjunction with team dynamic training, the adventure has all the excitement of the TV show along with strong team growth components.

The experience begins with a fun brainteaser that helps spread the teams’ departure times by a few minutes. Teams are allocated a resource kit with travel vouchers, cash budget, maps and directions, as well as the rules for the day.

Thank you VERY much for providing a great afternoon on Friday! Every person in the team enjoyed it and is still talking about it. The photos you provided captured the day well and have been passed around the team. People from other teams think the concept is great for a team building day and have asked to see the photos. It’s a pity that we only hold team building days once a year; we now have to wait a full year before we can arrange something again!
