Every company should take a weekend retreat at least once a year to refocus employees' and managers' attention on the importance of working together as a unit to achieve the company's goals. In underlining the importance of cooperation and communication, team-building activities can serve as a fun and positive way to reinforce this message of a single company working together.
Horizon Village & Resort is in the beautiful Northern Thailand area of Chiang Mai. Our hotel with conference rooms is located amid the stunningly beautiful Tweechol Botanical Garden. We offer the perfect location and facilities for companies to hold a productive conference amid tropical beauty. Our garden is also an ideal venue for team-building activities in Chiang Mai.
The value of team-building is quickly becoming apparent to managers and owners of companies that face increasing competition. These activities are simple and fun: games, contests, and activities where employees form teams and compete against other teams of employees to reach a goal or complete a task.
Certain team-building activities are chosen for their ability to help instill lacking qualities in a workforce and help them see and appreciate the value of their fellow employees. They also help people realize what can be accomplished by working together.
We're experienced in hosting many companies for team-building activities and can suggest some particularly effective activities that can be held indoors in our venues or outside on the lawns of our garden.
We can help arrange for professional team-building companies to organize and conduct a team-building day or simply suggest adequate areas of our lawns or gardens or large enough indoor venues to serve as team-building locations.
Popular corporate team-building activities that foster cooperation and working together as a team include:
This outdoor activity is perfect for our expansive garden. Geocaching is conducted in small teams of 4-5. Each team has to locate planted caches in an area before the competing team locates theirs. Each team is supplied with a list of geographical coordinates and uses a smartphone to find the caches. The caches can contain further tasks the teams have to complete to win. This activity instills the value of teamwork.
This is an old game that can be played by any size team, preferably in a large outdoor area. Each team has a flag, and the purpose of the game is to capture the other team’s flag in their designated territory without ‘losing’ too many members of your team (by being tagged out). This can be a strategic game that focuses on every member playing a part to ensure a team victory.
This is a creative team-building activity that can be played indoors or outdoors. Each team has to design and build a protective egg container from materials provided, like cardboard boxes and plastic. This activity teaches employees to value creative input from other employees in reaching a goal.
The point of this activity is to also value creative input from others. This is a simple and fun activity where each team must build a boat from cardboard and tape and set one team member afloat in the boat for as long as possible. The activity can be held on the lakes of Tweechol Botanical Garden.
Team games and sports activities also help build trust, reliance, and cooperation. Games of skill can also teach employees that sometimes, the most unlikely person can become a star at a game, and everyone should appreciate the talents of every team member.
