| What can you expect? |
A day full of fun!
Teambuilding programs are tailored to meet both the needs and goals of individual groups. A typical land-based teambuilding program consists of a progression of activities that aim to bring groups to greater cohesion. The time spent on each level of the progression varies by the amount of time available and how well the group already knows one another. All such programs begin with Icebreakers, to get the group warmed up. Games follow, giving the group the opportunity to engage in more energetic activities or in closer proximity to one another. Challenges and Initiatives are the time when groups really have a chance to push their limits, and engage in activities that allow them to reach their goals such as teamwork, improved communication and demonstration of leadership.
In light of facilitator differences and preferences, and the goals and makeup of your group, we will design specific activities to help your group meet their goals.
Completing the “Getting to Know You” information sheet and faxing it to Sonia at 301-834-4173, is most helpful in developing a plan for your specific group.
