Why Does your Team Need Team Building Events?
With Nile Team Building Services, you need somewhat little amount of money to have team building events done either outside your workplace or within the work premises. They can be simple, less strenuous and less complicated. You just want to create structured opportunities for employees to mingle and get to know each other in the interest of producing continuously improving work. We can offer a team building lunch from within your workplace premises, a team building meeting, or a team building tour or safari preferably in a place which is more adventurous like a national park.
We can schedule events in the workplace or in your nearby town, national park, campsite, forest reserve, or any other place of your interest for your employees. An effective team building activity can be as simple as just getting everyone together in a room for lunch, to as wide as staying out in the country for a couple of days.
Sometimes we just provide lunch for the whole team in the company or for a department or work team. We just assign employees to various workgroups (5 to 10 people) to discuss and respond to work-related questions.
Schedule employees to visit other departments for a take-an-employee-to-work day. Employees are always curious about what others do. Satisfy their interest and introduce them to a whole new workgroup in the process. You will also break down the barriers that are inherent in how much of the office and work is structured.
Take an example of “Job shadowing” where an individual is scheduled to try and sit in another person’s office for a while and see how much it takes that person to produce results. For instance, a Director sits in an office of a Receptionist. It provides the opportunity for an employee to explore alternate career paths, too. It’s easy to put together and it costs only the employees’ time.
The opportunity to observe in another department allows employees to participate in team building that enhances cross-department cooperation and understanding. It also offers employees a chance to explore other career paths.
Nile Team Building Services will organise travels for you in case we are traveling out to the country-side, spacious vehicles shall be provided, snacks, and beverages. As an agency with experienced people, we shall work on the schedules, reserve the space suitable and fit for the team, like a conference room, picnic site, a beach or any other as desired by the team.
After realising that most employees across the companies or in a single department may fail to perform because they do not read and interpret concepts. In one of the team building events, we can illustrate to them how they can develop a culture of reading and discuss a particular book in a work book club. The company purchases the books for the employees and they’ll meet weekly to discuss a chapter or two.
Employees take turns leading the discussion about the chapter in the best book clubs. Then a second employee can lead the discussion about the implications for the company of what they’re reading.
Nile Team Building Services can make the events as funny and adventurous as well as educative as possible.
We encourage your employees to volunteer for charity as a group. We can arrange a charity run for your employees, golfing for the homeless, building homes for poor families, or collecting food for people without food. We consider volunteering as a team as an activity that produces lasting results. The solidarity that employees build when they volunteer together is sustainable and powerful, and it flows over into the workplace.
Nile Team Building Services also organises Employees’ Parties together with team building or as separate events. Sometimes such parties may include or host employees’ family members.
Almost all these events can include all of your employees, their children and their partners. Bringing family members of the employees together develops friendships outside work which can cement team building in the workplace.
There are lots of children games and fun-plays that can be developed to cater for all ages and sizes. You might consider putting up a big screen in the parking lot to show family movies. Contact Nile Team Building Services for a memorable event.
Hold a Christmas Eve holiday luncheon in one of the National Parks or any tourist destination as employees scatter to celebrate the holidays. As an employer, you have myriad opportunities to offer alternatives to annual holiday parties—or be wild and crazy and do both.
But the bottom line is that team building activities for employees can stretch your imagination—and you’re really only limited by your imagination. Offer some or all of these opportunities to become a great team that can produce results. Contact us for low cost but highly effective team building activities that can make you an employer of choice.
