Why Your Next Corporate Team Building Should Be at The Greenwoode Village

Team building, development, and growth with the Greenwoode Village

Corporate team building is one of the most underrated activities your company or business can participate in. If you have been looking for opportunities to take your skill-building to the next level, then a team retreat or corporate team-building activity at The Greenwoode Village will be perfect for you.

Looking back at history, regardless of the event or accomplishment, not many were ever done without a solid team. Sure, there may have been one person standing waving the flag or holding up the medal or trophy, but be certain, there was a team behind them every step of the way.

With a single purpose, common goal, and teamwork, a team can overcome impossible odds to achieve goals many would have deemed impossible.

Surrounding Yourself with A Great Team

Even in positions of leadership, surrounding yourself with a great team of people is essential to the success of your business or organization. After all, it’s the weakest link in the chain, which is responsible for the whole load being lost.

Regardless of your business, its goals, or what you do, there’s no road to sustainable or long-term success without skill-building and teamwork. That’s why corporate team building, or team retreats, are as important, if not more important, than ever before.

However, organizing corporate team-building activities can be difficult. Luckily, the experienced team at The Greenwoode Village is standing by to assist you with unique and effective skill-building activities and events.

5 Components of Effective Corporate Team Building 

Below are five practical components of effective team-building and skill-building:

1. Understanding Your Limitations

Knowing what you don’t know rather than what you do know is a much more valuable asset to anyone in a leadership position. Team building shouldn’t be something that you hope to finish in one session. It’s not something you do once, and you’re done, and suddenly, you have a team that works in perfect harmony. Team building should be something your company or business devotes regular time and attention to. You don’t have to do it every day, but getting your team together regularly is a great way to promote unity within your team. Feelings of employee isolation reduce productivity by up to 21%.

2. Building Your Team Skills

You’re not appointing a team. You’re building a team. It’s an important distinction to remember. Choose your team based on the skills and talents they bring to the team. By mixing effective skills with good characteristics such as a positive attitude, communication, and problem-solving, you’ll have a more rounded team. Socializing between your team members can improve communication patterns by more than 50%.

3. Clear and Attainable Objectives and Goals

Any team will always function better when they have a clear goal or objective. If you’re the team leader, it’s your responsibility to set those goals and ensure they are communicated effectively to your team. If the goalposts are always moving, it’s hard for your team to score. 75% of staff believe that teamwork and collaboration are essential.

4. Ensure Your Team Knows They Are Appreciated 

At work, you have certain obligations, goals, or objectives to meet. It’s part of why you get paid or why you took the position you did. Simply acknowledging the accomplishment of hitting KPIs, targets, or goals is an essential part of building a successful team around you. Taking it a step further and thanking your team for the effort they put into their work will pay dividends for years to come. Organizations that promote collaboration and communication among their workforce are 4 or 5 times less likely to lose their best employees.

5. There’s Always Room for Happiness

Work is often tiring and stressful, especially if you’re working in a high-stress environment. However, taking a few minutes for a smile, a joke, or some fun is something that no team leader can afford to forget. Remember, as the boss, team leader, or owner, you set the tone. A fully engaged workforce can double the revenue of a company.
