Team building: an event that reinforces corporate cohesion
Les corporate events Successful are those who manage to promote team spirit, communication and collaboration by transmitting the core values of your organization.
For this, “team building”, which would be translated into French as “team building”, is an interesting corporate event in many ways: the activities make it possible to highlight the personalities of each member of a company, but also to create links between these people.
These activities stimulate and strengthen the motivation of teams while creating moments favorable to their well-being. The collective intelligence enabled by such activities is also known to generate an increase in internal productivity, and therefore, added value for the company.
” The event was a great success for our employees, especially on the terrace of the La Rochefoucauld space.” — Capucine, business manager at LUCA.
Overview of the best team building activities
In the spaces rented for your corporate event or in the streets of Paris, the team building activities are numerous and very diverse: enough to find those that correspond to the image and values of each company that wants to create memorable moments.
- Visit a place dear to the company
A guided tour of a Parisian neighborhood, the discovery of an essential museum or even a stroll in a relaxing garden: going out to enjoy the history of the streets of Paris with the people who share our daily lives (often in an office) is a very good idea to establish a light, trusting environment, conducive to discovery and chat.
Good for the company: getting some fresh air and creating an outdoor activity creates a pleasant atmosphere favorable to exchanges and meetings. If you want to organize a Treasure hunt In the streets of Paris, do not hesitate to contact Sand'Rions ! And for the most gourmet visits, Formeret recommends”Choco-Story Paris”, nicknamed “The Chocolate Museum” ! Tasting at the end of the day, of course.
- Tasting or cooking workshop
In a small group or in larger numbers, the idea of a cooking workshop or a tasting (wine, cheese,...) is to carry out a collaborative activity. People who already know each other can strengthen their bond and discover each other outside the office, when people who do not necessarily have the opportunity to meet within the company can discover and exchange ideas. A fun and educational activity, known to appeal to as many people as possible.
Good for business: the kitchen is a place to share. Over a meal or a drink, spirits calm down and open to discussion. Such activities are known to promote cohesion, team spirit but also creativity and (good) taste.
Formeret's recommendation, for a successful cooking workshop ? The Chefs' Workshop, who has been organizing them since 2006! And for a wine tasting, feel free to look on the side of Vino Cado Or of The Oenodyssey.
- Creative workshop or strategy game
Solving enigmas as a team, participating in a creative workshop such as painting or drawing, for example, allows you to create moments of sharing and reflection and promotes communication. For this occasion, it is often recommended to call on an animator to moderate the activities and instill a good mood in your ranks.
Good for the business: the games immediately create a friendly atmosphere where fun, laughter and communication are at the center of each game. A pleasant moment to live for you, and for all of your employees. Formeret's recommendation for successful games? Direction: the Pirate Party Or the Hollywood Studio of Banana Events !
