Team Building Activities For Better Communication

Benefits of Team Building Activities

The main goal of any team building activity is to improve the way your team members work together. People perform better and make better decisions when they put their heads together, versus working alone. Communication  allows collaboration and knowledge sharing to address challenges that your workers may not be able to solve on their own. Regardless of what your ultimate goal is, improving communication is the best way to get there. Using team building communication activities that build these skills gives your workplace team an advantage over your competitors.

This is where team building can help. By placing your team members in situations where they are required to communicate, they form bonds and break down barriers, improving productivity and making work more enjoyable for everyone.

At Team Building with Taste, we offer corporate cooking team building activities, and we know the recipe for success when it comes to communication. Here are a few strategies we use to increase communication and improve its quality for our clients.

Team Building Communication: Working Together as a Team

At Team Building with Taste, we have your team work together to create a meal. By focusing your employees on a defined goal, they will need to determine individual roles within the group based on existing skill sets and outline a process. In order for any of this to work, they will need to speak to each other.

The best way to facilitate communication in a team building exercise is to pick something enjoyable that everyone is comfortable with. By working towards a delicious dinner, team members are motivated, having fun, and improving team building communication skills without realizing it.

Problem Solving Activities for Your Business Team

Team Building with Taste features different challenges that force teams to not only be creative, but to focus their efforts in new ways. Creating problems forces your employees to adapt.

Placing an obstacle in between your team members and their goal is a great way to ramp up skill-building and bonding during these events. Remember to keep it light; you don’t want your team building activities to feel like more work.

Cooking Competition

Our team building activities pit teams against one another in an effort to win over our judges’ expert palates. Your team will work together to create delicious meals that are also beautifully presented to be crowned winner. Along the way your team is guided by one of our professional chefs. Our chefs are trained to  adhere to our 10 page script that brings your group together and builds the group’s team building communication skills.

Combine creation, problem solving, and fun by adding a competitive element to your team building event. Being the best in friendly competition is a great way to draw people out of their shells and encourage teamwork. Get people working together that don’t interact on a daily basis and watch how they excel!

This element of our team building program releases tension and alleviates long-standing grudges that have a way of forming in offices.
