Team building has many benefits that go beyond improving team relationships. Depending on activity, team building can help employees to enhance their communication skills, confidence and wellbeing which all leads to increased productivity and job satisfaction.
Team building is beneficial when done at any time however to reap long term benefits most aim to coincide team building with quarterly business update meetings or other milestone events where the team is likely to be in one place. Regular team building not only helps build relationships with existing and new employees but it helps keep embedding the fundamental values of being a team
The Crystal Clear Challenge is one of our top team building activities. It is suitable for any size group, is inclusive and includes a mix of highly fun yet cerebral team tasks.
Any outdoor team building event is beneficial to employees. Being outdoors helps elevate morale and therefore productivity. Some events are more active than others and offer more wellbeing benefits, these include It’s a Knockout, Inflatables, Treasure Hunts and Retro Sports Day.

Depending on what you want to achieve, whether it be a Christmas Treasure Hunt, a HAKA conference energiser or an activity like Diamond Heist focused on team skill development, we have something for all your needs in winter.
Our top ideas for outdoor team building in smaller groups would include Country Pursuits and Treasure Hunts and for indoor team building we would recommend activities like Diamond Heist, Codebreakers and The Lost Pages.
Most team building activities we offer can be scaled up to cater for larger group sizes, except for the likes of our Bake Off where ovens may be required.
You can pretty much add any activity onto your conference, it all depends on time and venue and whether you want to do an indoor or outdoor team building activity.
Team building can be done as part of an away day, as a single activity or added onto a conference. You can have multiple activities but it is advisable to only have one activity for up to two hours to keep attendees engaged.
The Eventurous portfolio of team building activities has all types of events for various abilities, depending on what your team is looking for. Although we aim to be inclusive with all we offer, we do offer some with and without physical activity for example. Our team will always aim to find the perfect solution for your employees.
