As one of the UK’s leading team building companies, we have a lot of expertise in working with companies, big and small, to organise their perfect team building experience.

Our clients want the 'perfect event' for their teams, but there is no one-size-fits-all. Here are the ways we approach organising team building experiences:

Understanding Your Audience

You need to understand your audience. In this case, the audience is your peers and colleagues. As well as understanding where your team’s professional strengths and weaknesses lie and also their personalities and the different types of characters that you have.

The key is to ensure that your corporate team building event is adaptable in a way that the entire audience can interact and leave feeling as though they have taken something positive away.

When to Hold Your Event

This is a tricky one that employers can dwell over because, although you don’t want to lose out on valuable working hours, the chances of a full turnout outside office hours are slim.

Setting aside a morning or afternoon, even an entire day, can have long-term benefits for your business. Monday mornings tend to be regarded as the worst time of the week because the weekend is in the past and a full working week lies ahead. However, if the goal of your team building exercise is to re-energise your team, a late-morning/early-afternoon event could be the way to go.

While Mondays are often greeted with disdain, Fridays receive a much warmer welcome as they signal the beginning of the weekend. Staff members have an extra spring in their step as they look forward to their weekend plans – and it’s no secret that Friday afternoons may not be the most productive period of the week. Might this be the perfect time for a fun team event?

What Are You Hoping to Achieve?

Every event should be organised with an outcome in mind, so what is yours? Would you like your employees to collaborate? If so, then an experience where participants must work together to reach a final goal.

Improving collaboration across a team is probably the number one way we can help to improve a team’s performance.

Do you want to spot the future leaders in your teams? At Team Challenge Company we have experiences to identify and bring out leadership qualities that revolve around either creative and collaborative practices or competitive challenges. These tried and tested techniques delve deep into team dynamics and how individuals respond to them. We have also developed a core set of highly effective interactive business games. Our interactive games mimic real-world scenarios but with a bit of fun thrown in for good measure.

If you want to take away from their usual work environment for a fun and social day, then a light and engaging experience will help them which will help energise them and get teams interacting in new ways.

At Team Challenge Company we start with your outcome. Whether it’s a morale boosting day out or something to inspire more creative thinking, we have a huge range of experiences designed to help enhance your team. You might even just want to add some spark to your event. Whatever you’re looking for, we’re here to help you organise the perfect corporate team building experience, get in touch with our team.
