“We equipped all the members of those teams with electronic badges that collected data on their individual communication behaviour—tone of voice, body language, whom they talked to and how much, and more. With remarkable consistency, the data confirmed that communication indeed plays a critical role in building successful teams. In fact, we’ve found patterns of communication to be the most important predictor of a team’s success. Not only that, but they are as significant as all the other factors—individual intelligence, personality, skill, and the substance of discussions—combined.”

Team Building: Boosting morale after years apart

A global study from Qualtrics recently found “Two out of five (41.6%) of respondents said that their mental health has declined since the COVID-19 outbreak. The number of people who rated the state of their mental health in the lowest range (3 or under on a 10-point scale) has doubled since the outbreak began.”

Yet, only 27% of executives believe employee experience will yield a business return. And, even though 61% of employees trust their employer to look after their well-being and 48% of executives rank it as a top workforce concern, only 29% of HR leaders have a health and well-being strategy.

Team Building online: Dealing with Zoom Fatigue

With our online, virtual escape rooms, we use Zoom as our platform to deliver the vent. However, with everyone glued to their screens all day and in meetings, Zoom fatigue is becoming a real issue. We’ve taken great lengths to make sure that whilst you are looking at a screen, the experience is far from a standard “zoom meeting”, but even if you’re not working with us, how do you make sure you’re not burning out?

Team Building Online - Why it's needed now more than ever

With the circumstance we find ourselves in, we’re able to break down the barriers of normal “meetings”, use the platforms in a new, fun and dynamic way and create an environment that allows colleagues to build relationships and connection through an engaging shared experience. It’s creating a change to the normal day-to-day procedures and allowing employees to let their hair down.

Team Building: Happiness and Employee Engagement

Current times make it tough to really engage with our employees and co-workers. We long for a time again when we can be in the same room. But as a result, engaging, inspiring and creating a positive environment for employees has never been so important. A team building event builds practical skills for workers to apply, but it also tells them their needs, mental state and wellbeing are also being considered. Team building games and activities are a great way to break up the grind, change the scenery [even if it’s virtual!] and give a whole new, engaging experience. It’s fun!
