Over the past 15 years, The Bader Group has responded to the spectacular challenges our clients bring to us. Frequently, we’re presented with the impossible: “We have limited time, little money, and sensitive issues about this and that. But we’d like you to do something to strengthen our communication and teamwork… and we want to have fun… oh, and we’ve scheduled this event for next week.”
These challenges are our muses; each request stimulates our creativity. We’ve designed and facilitated countless custom team experiences and adventures. This book is a sampler of the many custom team-building events we have designed, facilitated, and enjoyed with a full range of clients.
Why spend time and money to build teamwork? What good does it do?
Teamwork increases motivation, commitment, communication, and generates new energy to sustain teams through change and difficult times. Without attending to teamwork, conflicts brew and stifle direct communication, decisions take longer, and creativity is sabotaged. As a result, people lose dedication and resist change. The time it takes to settle these disagreements and delays has a price higher than the cost of any positive effort to strengthen teamwork. Think of corporate team-building as preventive maintenance.
All successful team activities promote:
- Communication
- Motivation
- Action toward a common goal
- Self-disclosure
- Trust
These benefits, and your specific purpose for initiating a team exercise, will drive your selection of activities.
