Team building comes in many forms and the word alone has many implications depending on your perspective. Some folks see it as daring ropes courses pushing you to accomplish something fearful like bungee jumping off a bridge or flying through the air on a zip-line.
Others view it as dialoguing on problems facing the team and devising creative strategies to break through the conflict to innovations.
So what is it really?
The generic term team building is used in a lot of different ways. Here are some of the most common ways of looking at it. Team building is:
- improving the overall performance of the team
- developing and improving the working relationships
- challenging outdoor events that push you individually to accomplish something you're anxious about or makes you fearful
- improving communications, facing conflict and building trust
- getting members engaged in decisions; prepared to solve problems and take ownership for actions
So think about what the term means to you. What do you want to accomplish in your team building experience? What are the challenges holding back your team from success?
