How to use May and June to strengthen your team
Spring is still in sight, it’s still cold outside, but we’re already starting to plan teambuilding activities for May and June. Get inspired by popular trends and find out why investing in teambuilding is one of the most effective steps for developing your team.
The most popular teambuilding activities for the spring and summer months
- Go Team – A modern team game that uses tablets and GPS technology. Participants complete creative and fun tasks in the field, which supports teamwork, communication and strategic thinking. Go Team is an ideal option for those who want to combine fun, exercise and innovation in a pleasant outdoor environment.
- Flat out Formula 1 or Afloat – These programs emphasize construction and creativity. In Flat out Formula 1, teams build their own model of a racing car and then compete with it, which strengthens planning, role-sharing and cooperation skills. Afloat is a similar challenge where boats are built and teams then have to get them out on the water – perfect for summer weather and a relaxed atmosphere.
- Beat the Box – A logic game in which teams face time pressure and logic puzzles. Working together, they must decipher codes and open all locked boxes. During the game, teams discover that they cannot reach their goal without each other. The program develops the ability to communicate effectively, make quick decisions, and solve problems as a team.
- CSR programs: Building a dream – In addition to having fun, you can also combine team building with helping others. The Building a dream program focuses on socially responsible activities, such as building toys or tools for children from orphanages or non-profit organizations. It brings a strong emotional experience and strengthens team cohesion.
The importance of debriefing: Teambuilding with a real impact
The greatest benefit of team building is seen when participants reflect on their experiences and realize what they have learned. That is why debriefing – a joint summary and evaluation of activities – is a key part of every event. It helps to transfer the acquired experience into everyday work and support the long-term development of the team.
Why is investing in team building worth it?
Investing in team building means investing in people. High-quality prepared activities increase motivation, improve communication and strengthen trust between team members. In the long run, they lead to increased performance, a better atmosphere in the workplace and reduce employee turnover. Moreover, thanks to spring and summer dates, you will enjoy not only effective development, but also pleasant weather and the energy of a new beginning.
