What is a team building activity?

The definition of team building could be the following: 

"A team building is an activity organised to strengthen the bonds between team members, improve communication and collaboration, and achieve a common goal. It can be a sports event, a nature outing, a role play, a group challenge, etc. The aim is to develop team cohesion, self-confidence and trust in others, and to foster motivation and job satisfaction."

There are many activities for team building, depending on the objectives and interests of the team. Do you want to improve communication, strengthen relationships between employees, develop team trust or something else? First, decide what you want to achieve by organising this activity.

Here are some ideas for team building activities to organise:

• Outdoor adventure games, such as zip line, hiking, etc.
• Puzzle solving games, such as escape room, escape games, treasure hunt, etc. 
• Culinary workshops, such as cooking dinner together or a cooking class.
• Personal development workshops, such as meditation or breathing sessions.
