3 Corporate Team Building Activities That Are Actually Fun

The moment some people hear the words “team building exercise’ being uttered, they slide out through the nearest exit. The reason for this is because team building events are often looked as something to be embarrassed about, not enthusiastic. Even if they were to be helpful, that part of it is eliminated by the reluctance of the employees. However, there are some activities that employees will actually want to be a part of and enjoy, such as a game show party in Georgia. Here are few such activities:

• Memory wall

This is a physical activity that is great for building camaraderie and fostering relationships among employees. The game lasts for around 60 to 90 minutes and the number of participants can be from 6 to 50. For this game, the team members are asked to write down their shared positive experiences with each other. The sheets of paper are then put up on a wall. This memory wall helps reaffirm the relationships between everyone.

• Games shows

One of the best ways for employees to learn teamwork, task management and leadership is to take part in a game show. You can either organize the show yourself, or, for better results, hire an entertainment consulting firm that will “supply” you the game show. You can choose from a host of different games, such as Jeopardy-themed or Family Feud-themed. There are many firms that host such game shows in Atlanta.

• Mock Shark Tank

A mock Shark Tank is an ideal activity for promoting collaboration, creative thinking, teamwork and entrepreneurship among employees. This activity consists of people pitching their idea - Shark Tank-style - to a group of investors. A lot of people love the pitch format as it allows them to be entrepreneurial and it gives the team members a chance to work together to achieve something.

These are some activities that will not just improve communication among team members but also the spirit of collaboration.
