Team-Building Activities You Might Actually Enjoy
Use Problem-Solving Skills to Help You Escape Escape rooms challenge your puzzle-solving prowess and require teams to work together to solve riddles, puzzles, and games to, quite literally, escape a room. These games can be found at local (physical) escape room sites, but you can also find board games sold online and platforms — like TeamBuilding.com — where you don’t have to leave your home or office to play! (Remember, escape rooms are designed for smaller teams.) Find Out Which Department Is the ‘Smartest’ Whether you opt to host theme-based games with questions based on TV shows or holidays or quiz each other on the history of the company or people in the company, trivia is a great way to learn and problem-solve together. You could host monthly or quarterly events to start a tradition and choose to pit departments against each other or split the whole company up into teams. Ultimately, it’s up to you, but don’t forget to include prizes! Who doesn’t love the chance to win a gift card? Check out Pinterest for great, office-friendly trivia — including trivia from “The Office”!
Here’s something that may shock you: Team-building exercises can be fun!
Often, a symphony of groans accompanies team- building games, and usually, that’s because activities designed to help you connect with others are … boring. As you return to the office, start a hybrid schedule, or continue to work remotely, consider planning the team- building activities below instead of the standard pizza party in the break room. We guarantee you and your coworkers will have a lot more fun and actually bond. Have All the Fun of a Campfire Without the Smoke TeamBuilding.com is a company designed for this very mission, but our personal favorite among their 22 different events is Tiny Campfire. TeamBuilding. com’s hosts will curate the content; all you need to do is task your team with securing s’mores ingredients and one tea light. At the virtual event, the host will lead everyone through camping-themed games and share scary stories. You participate and roast your marshmallows for s’mores. This is perfect for fully remote and nationwide teams!
