"Having a sense of trust and unity as a team is vital to our work. Between the wonderful food, the beautiful locale, and expert work of the CEO Challenge Course trainers, our staff bonded and was better prepared to tackle the coming year. As my staff constantly reminds me, it was one of the high points of our year."

   Experiential Team Building

High performance depends on teamwork and getting along with co-workers. It depends on you... and him… and her. It means knowing that “we’re all in it together,” and working to find the “sweet spot” that balances individual efforts and group collaboration. Then all of you can solve daily business problems with speed and ease, get out of those funky conflicts more effectively, and communicate more freely.

High performance team conflict resolution and problem solving call for serious team conflict management strategies. But no one ever said they can’t be FUN!

CEO specializes in Team Building events designed for eye-opening, energizing, serious fun! Everyone from top corporate executives to sports teams can use team building activities to take their game beyond their “best practices.”

Our spectacular, wooded corporate retreat in Pennsylvania's Pocono Mountains, just an hour's drive from New Jersey and 2 hours from New York City, provides a perfect location for team building offsites -- whether for a day, a week, or as long as you like. Discover our Team Challenge low ropes course and other outdoor team building activities, or opt for indoor team building games in our spacious and comfortable meeting facility. If you prefer, our expert team building facilitators will travel to your site. Whatever option you choose, we’ll create a custom-designed program to meet your team’s specific goals.

Let us challenge your team with a series of experiential challenges to solve together, shedding light on levels of trust, teamwork, communication, decision-making skills, and problem-solving ability. CEO offers an extensive repertoire of imaginative team challenges, ranging from vigorous outdoor activities to indoor “no-sweat” programs. Just a few examples:

  • Toxic Popcorn: Team members save their town from “explosion” using skills for planning, process development, and effective communication.

  • Alligator Pit: The team’s challenge is to cross the pit to get the prize, while learning skills to build trust and collaboration.Team Building - Stack It Up

  • Tied in Knots: Teams of two work their way out of “the ties that bind,” putting problem-solving and creative thinking skills to the test.

  • Ski Slope: The team’s mission is to traverse snow-covered mountains infested by snow trolls who want to capture their new secret weapon. Team members learn how to face their fears and move quickly, effectively, and collaboratively to save the day!

  • Stack it Up: The seemingly simple task of moving paper cups helps teams master the skills of managing frustration and conflict.

Corporate Team Building can be woven into Experiential Team Building to further explore patterns of interactions within relationships that are limiting the team's success.

Half-day and full-day programs are available.

For teams that want to maximize the transformative impact of the event, CEO’s consultants can perform a pre-event Team Effectiveness Assessment to identify the group’s strengths and weaknesses. CEO will work with the group’s leaders to custom design a program that will launch team members toward a state of high performance.
