Teamwork + Collaboration

The way we all work is changing. Collaboration and teamwork is more important than ever for people to flourish and for your organisation to thrive.

And yet, many teams suffer from problems with collaboration, lack of trust and low engagement simply because there's no space to develop and grow together.

Away from your usual workplace, you'll bond and have fun at this innovative outdoors workshop: it'll bring out the best in your team so you'll all work together better.

This programme is especially good for organisations who have:

● remote workers
● new teams forming
● high staff turnover or low eNPS scores
● unhealthy conflicts
● dominant members or quiet voices not being heard

● individual priorities getting in the way of a shared vision
● long-serving employees stuck in the way things were
● managers who've been absent or not supportive
● leadership needing to communicate changes to team
● recent restructures causing uncertainty & nervousness

What happens on the day?

Based around a fire, this team building programme includes fire-making, shelter building, foraging or other fun outdoor activities that bring everyone together, lower personal barriers, and get you thinking about the way you work together.

After a shared lunch we facilitate a group conversation in creative ways that'll generate rich and practical ideas from your whole team on how to move forward and be stronger together.

You'll leave with an action plan for the things you agree on, to take back to your workplace.

Group size: from 5 up to 50 people

Questions we help you answer

• How can you work together better?

• How can your team be even better and stronger?

• How can you communicate better as a team?

Why nature is the best team builder

Nature is the great leveller, helping you all connect on a deeper level, breaking down personal barriers and prejudices, leading to more trust and more meaningful relationships between people from diverse backgrounds.

The benefits of bringing your team into the wild

Taking employees out of the office and into the great outdoors naturally fosters better communication and collaboration. Wild nature provides an open, unstructured environment where teams can get to know each other better and have meaningful conversations without the restrictions of hierarchies, or the day-to-day distractions of screens, phones or interruptions.
You'll leave feeling connected, inspired and refreshed, ready to work together better and do better work.

I often hear a lot about strategy, but rarely get a chance to discuss with Dave (the CEO), it was great to be able to make my voice heard and have a decent conversation with him, without notifications and a crammed meeting schedule getting in the way!
