Why do you need a team bonding day?

I am sure we are all familiar with the importance of team bonding days and why every organisation regardless of the size of the team should definitely invest in their people.

Recently while speaking to few of my clients, I realised that while taking teams out for a team building session is a familiar concept, many of us tend to skip the obvious and don't realise the importance of making it a continuous practice in our businesses. 

I can not emphasise enough the significance of building a good working environment for all team members. Having worked with innumerable organisations like Apple, ICI Dulux, HP, Vodafone to name a few, I can confidently without doubt tell you that motivating team work is one of the most important goals to have for any organisation. The culture of working together must be at the core of every company regardless of the size of the team. As a manager you are going to achieve sustainable growth only when you equally focus on your employees as you do on your clients.

A team day out would be the perfect way to encourage team members to work together and contribute to common goals.

Here are our top reasons why you should invest in your own people through a creative, fun filled and goal oriented team day together-

1. Improves employees morale-

A business can not run smoothly without its teams. So it is vital to maintain high team morale which determines staff engagement and job satisfaction as well. Team building activities either inside or outside work place would be exciting moments when your staff can immerse into an activity or activities together and show off their individual talents. When you encourage positive energy among members, you are indirectly working towards boosting the morale and the final productivity of all members.

2. Boost interpersonal relationships-

Team building activities may include talent shows, indoor office based activities, outdoor adventures or a bit of everything. These activities need to be designed to ensure active participation from everyone. The activities would lead to open communication and give your staff a chance to understand their co-workers in real time. The attitude of cooperation would help team members change their “me” to “we” mindsets, which would benefit team-work effectiveness and collaboration. 

 3. Eliminate Barriers-     

  When the office relationships are improved, everyone in an organization can easily      understand each other. In consequence, any conflict would be solved faster because employees are likely to resolve any misunderstanding within themselves thus saving productive time of everyone involved. We definitely endorse getting out (when the weather is nice) and exploring new outdoor landscapes with the team because new places breed new ideas and new ideas breed a sense of achievement among teams that help eliminate barriers of communication.

4. Introducing Changes-

Team days out are perfect times to introduce a new plan, a new model of working together, a new team member, an organisational change or change in method of delivery. Creating innovative and fun ways to interact and ease the members into something new always makes it seem less challenging thus the team feel more ready and positive about the change.

5. Improves Wellbeing-

When your employees are emotionally healthy, their job satisfaction and productivity will inevitably be high. Nothing is more crucial than staff member’s feeling motivated and healthy because that is what drives all of us forward. The key however is to constantly invest in the team and in creating opportunities for the teams to bond outside of their day to day routine.
