Team building activities seem to be met with negative sentiment these days. Words like ‘team bonding’ or ‘ice breaker’ can cause employees to break out in a cold sweat, even though the intent is good, they often end up feeling forced and awkward which pretty much throw the benefits of team bonding activities out the window.
Success at work is dependent on the quality of your work, not just the amount of time you work. An employee’s quality of work is highly dependent on their well-being. Team building activities are a way to introduce play into the work environment, which can increase energy and prevent burnout. Play brings joy and bonding, which goes a long way for team problem solving, creativity and innovation.
As a leader, there’s no doubt you want to build morale and camaraderie within your team proactively – but how do you do that in ways that people will get excited about?

Laser Tag
Laser Tag is a classic (and fun) team building experience, challenging your employee’s wit and strategy skills. Our dedicated Laser Tag arena can provide a combination of games including Team Tag, Rescue the Dummy, Defend the base and Capture the flag.
Rock Climbing
Rock climbing is both an individual and group challenge. It’s a valuable exercise in learning how to trust the rest of your team. Teams of at least four people rotate climbing and belaying their teammates up to the wall. The first quarter of the wall is a rope web continuing onto a man-made wall with holds and climbs that suit all ages and skill levels.
