Top Tips for Planning Your Outdoor Team Building Activity
Whether this is your first or tenth time organising a team building event for your group, it can seem like there’s never enough time to plan everything the way you want. Here are our tips to planning your next outdoor team building event:
Select the best day and time
Whilst outdoor team building can be run at any time in the day, there are a few factors to consider. Inflatable events such as It’s A Knockout and Crystal Challenge are best displayed in the daytime when there’s plenty of light to see where you’re going. There are some events that are more suited towards the latter end of the day, such as Survival Island which includes a fire lighting challenge.
Having completed thousands of team building events over the years, we always find that after a long day of presentations, teams are tired and ready to go home, so incorporating a day on its own for the team building activity is preferred.
Choose an event that everyone will enjoy
There is often the misconception that outdoor team building events are always physical activities. Whilst our physical activities such as It’s A Knockout and Totally Wipedout are extremely popular, we also offer more chilled events where teams can dip in and out of activities such as Quintessentially English.
Other, less physically demanding outdoor team building events are Crystal Challenge where teams compete in both mental and physical challenges to win crystals, or, if you’re looking for something out of the box, why not take part in our wacky Soap Box Derby where teams build, design and race against one another to become the next Lewis Hamilton.
Our expert and experienced team will happily advise which events will work best for your group to ensure you get maximum participation and involvement.
Create intrigue
Generate excitement for the upcoming outdoor team building event by teasing it to your employees beforehand. Keep the details of the actual activity secret, adding an air of mystery. Consider dropping enticing hints or even offering a prize to pique their curiosity. Using intrigue not only builds anticipation but also sparks engaging conversations among your team members.
Don’t plan teams in advance
Avoid forming teams simply from people who already know each other well or regularly work together. Opt instead for teams that blend individuals who typically don’t interact. That’s the main purpose of team building after all. All our activities are designed to create stronger bonds between people, whether they know each other or not.
