Team Building Events, or Corporate events as they are sometimes called, have been around for longer than many people would think. The concept of a workforce being a team can be traced back to the 1920's and 30's with the publication of the Hawthorne Study. The study examined how a series of events or events affected a group of people under a array of conditions. The results conclusively showed that out of all the conclusions, the development of a team identity and the concept that you were supported by your fellow workers and could interact with them fully, had an easily measurable optimistic effect on the groups.
Since then there has been a great deal of research built upon this initial study which has shown the many and varied optimistic effects a team building event can have on a workforce.
In the current economic climate, it has perhaps never been more fundamental for a company to ensure that it’s workforce remains absorbed, motivated and relatively free from stress. With many organisations having to restructure or reduce their workers hours to fend off the economic downturn, as well as jobs being lost in both the public and private sector, workplace stress is on the increase, as highlighted by a YouGov Investors in People UK report that showed 69% of workers expected to experience some degree of change in their workplace over the coming year. Change in a workplace will almost always lead to feelings of stress and anxiety over their future. It's therefore extremely fundamental for organisations to ensure their workforce can cope with the differences that need to be made to secure the organisations future, while still remaining on task and fully motivated.
One of the simplest ways to accomplish this delicate balance, is to plan a corporate team building activity for your workforce.
The days of such an activity simply being a chance for a day out at the company's expense are long gone. Nowadays specialist company team building event specialists can offer a tailor made solution to your individual needs and budget limits.
Games are planned with great attention to detail to ensure the key concepts of team building, such as being a fundamental part of a team, motivation, improving bonds between employees and having a optimistic shared experience, are delivered in a welcoming, relatively stress free way.
There are a entire myriad of events available to suit all kinds of workforce, from the relatively genteel pursuits of wine tasting, a treasure hunt or perhaps a murder mystery evening, to the more adrenaline pumping events of paintball games, driving an all terrain vehicle or even the crystal maze! A specialist provider will ensure that the array of events provided is designed specifically to the needs of your company and your workforce. Many organisations have many years valuable experience in leading such events and this can be an invaluable asset in ensuring that your company team building event is a complete success.
