Benefits of Teambuilding with Teamscapes

June 8, 2010 - PRLog -- It is important for any business to ensure its teams work efficiently; and the fantastic team development activities from Sundial Teamscapes can contribute to a team communicating more effectively and working together to obtain great results for your company.

The benefits from team building events are endless, but the main implication is that a closer team who trust each other will contribute better to meeting company targets.  By undertaking team development programmes, each team member will gain a better understanding of the business and their colleagues in the process.  

Many employers are concerned with taking employees out of the office to conduct team development training; but the experts at Sundial Teamscapes can assure team leaders that the most significant benefit from a training and development perspective is that the outdoor, indoor and culinary teambuilding activities create a non-threatening, distraction-free environment.

Sundial’s learning and development director, Lucy McGibbon explains how “the new approaches and methods implemented by Teamscapes teamwork training allow team leaders to observe participants in a more natural environment.  Without the added pressure of office expectations, team members can respond and interact naturally, absorbing each other’s knowledge and skills”.  These methods also allow team leaders to see the strengths of each individual participant, and therefore work to the team’s capabilities.

“The dynamics of a team will be defined by the characteristics of its members, and as no two teams are the same, what works for one probably will not work for another,” continues Lucy.  “Behaviours for effective communication need to be aligned with company values, taking into account the individuals’ needs, therefore it is essential we build into our training some time to agree the rules of engagement.  With clear rules of engagement everyone will know where they stand, and will be able to make their contributions to the team at the appropriate time and in the appropriate manner. “
