According to J. Richard Hackman, there are three criteria for evaluating the effectiveness of a team: performance that meets or exceeds standards; close collaboration and support; and continuous learning and renewal from colleagues. Team building is one of the key tools for businesses to achieve these criteria, serving as an extended arm of the HR department in training and developing the team.
With years of experience designing hands-on team building activities for businesses, Exotic Vietnam has implemented various creative team building activities tailored to the unique requirements of different companies and organizations in Viet Nam.
A work environment with colleagues full of positive energy, always ready to support each other in achieving the company’s common goals, is perhaps the ideal that any business, organization, or individual desires. Team building will help you achieve that aspiration.
Team building activities are based on the roadmap of building corporate culture, aiming to encourage each individual to fully utilize their skills and expertise, working together as a team to focus on achieving the company’s goals. These activities also provide a fun environment where participants can interact, share knowledge, and exchange experiences to solve challenges set by the organizers. Authentic team building supports creating a strong internal team, fostering tight-knit collaboration, unity, and alignment with the corporate culture.
Team building activities allow members to get to know and build trust with their colleagues and teammates. It is also a chance for leadership to take on different roles in various challenges, inspiring and sharing their enthusiasm and passion with the company’s members. This helps create a team full of energy and strong confidence, dedicated to common goals, overcoming all challenges to achieve success together.
Well-organized team building activities based on a company’s training curriculum can lead to positive and long-lasting changes in the skills, attitudes, and actions of each member within the organization. Don’t forget the importance of “practice makes perfect” – team building should be viewed as a regular investment for the company. While traditional training sessions may be serious and somewhat dry, team building activities are designed as practical applications of the training content in a fun and relaxed atmosphere. Participants can review what they’ve learned and apply it to overcome the challenges in the team building program.
The team building challenges designed specifically by Exotic Vietnam based on the company’s training curriculum aims to create difficult situations, communications under pressure, and moments of climax that require direction and guidance from the company’s leadership. Participants, after overcoming the challenges, will recognize obstacles and learn how to address them. In addition to interacting with colleagues, with challenges that sometimes require competition and sometimes demand cooperation between teams, participants will draw personal lessons to apply when they return to their daily work.
Encouraging employees to be their authentic selves to fully utilize their natural talents in their work, and optimizing each employee’s performance when working with a team, is the goal of a true team building program. A corporate culture built on honesty allows employees to be true to themselves, take responsibility for their actions, and view mistakes as opportunities for learning and personal growth rather than blaming others for their errors or failures. This fosters greater courage, stronger relationships with colleagues, empathy, and compassion. It also helps to embrace the unique identities of each team member, building a resilient and strong team capable of facing difficult challenges at work. A company with an honest work environment will make employees happier and more effective, benefiting both individuals and the organization.
Organizing authentic team building activities is an effective way to help managers and leaders assess and adjust their leadership styles to fit the various levels of employees. This can lead to a more harmonious work environment, more positive work outcomes, and greater benefits for the company. Exotic Vietnam is proud to be a company with extensive experience in genuine team building practices and a deep understanding of Vietnam’s culture and nature.
