Original Team Building

What Makes an Activity an Original Team Building Experience?

It's not just about doing something different. True originality is based on:

• Innovation in format
  
• Active participation from the entire group
  
• Integration of narrative or technology
  
• Direct impact on skills such as communication or leadership
  

When these elements come together, emotional memories transform into lasting learning.

5️. Corporate Escape Room

Another interesting option within the realm of original team building is the corporate escape room tailored to the company. In this format, teams must solve a mission within a limited time, deciphering codes, overcoming challenges, and strategically connecting clues.

• Generates positive tension that activates concentration
  
• Requires collaboration under pressure

• Efficient role distribution

How to Choose the Best Original Team Building Idea

Not all activities are suitable for all teams. Before deciding, it’s advisable to analyze:

• Current level of cohesion
  
• Strategic objectives
  
• Corporate culture
  
• Number of participants
  
• Organizational moment
  

Originality must align with purpose.
