BUSINESS TEAM BUILDING
Team building improves organizational effectiveness, team cohesion, cross-functional team work, and performance to boost business results including:
- streamlining and improving processes
- shaping a vibrant corporate culture to support an organization's vision and mission
- enhancing leadership
- improving corporate, sales & marketing strategies
- identifying new business opportunities and target markets
A major challenge facing the industry is the return to a bottom line, business oriented approach to team building. The term "team building" has been increasingly hijacked by purveyors of recreational activities, social events and entertainment to market their services. "Team recreation" and entertainment both play important roles in organizational health. Effective team building often does include recreation and entertainment. However, to attempt to pass off activities that are strictly "fun and games" as "team building" is misleading.
