A team is defined as two or more people who frequently experience interaction (in person or virtual) and have a common goal, but also exhibit autonomy or independence in their own role within the team. The positive effects of team building events on an individual’s team skills and the team’s subsequent performance has been proven many times in an array of industries and sectors. Yet, how to organise a successful team building training event has not been addressed as frequently. By providing information from academics, professors and experts in the field, this white paper presents the current understanding on team training activities and sets forth a strategy for organising a team building event within a company, which offers the best return on investment of time and financial resources.
