Hi, I work as a Senior Operations Analyst of an IT Data Center Operations Division. I just want to share an experience of our firm with the recent team building we had in an open area. The weather was not that good that time but we still had a very successful one. The reason why? It is because we trusted a developer that could help us achieve the best learning exercises in a very enjoyable and effective way.We had exciting activities & games. It's even a great adventure for all of us to work as a group. How about you? At some point, you've probably been involved in a team building similar to what we had. Any remarkable experience?

Forget those jokers who say three some and the such.

 

I am not a fan of team building activities. I feel that the euphoria from such activities will not last much beyond the activity. What is more beneficial from the team building activity is time off from work and the time to actually interact with colleagues, subordinates and superiors in a non work environment. The actual team building activity is secondary.

To me ....team building will let you see the true color of each and every colleagues. Those that like to siam...those that like to gang ho...those that like to carry balls....those that are Indian chief....those that like to arrow people and etc.....other than that.....time off from work....

Punish together just because of one joker mistake. Whole company kena confinement & take extra guard duties, .... etc..

 

 

Passing out, blanket party the Cpl.... That's Team Building... :a-m1212::a-happy:

agree. I kinda prefer overseas F&E incentive trips or infomal dinners after work.

 

Besides this, managment facilitating mediation helps too.

To me ...it lets me see the true colours of a management that "orders" a team building exercise be held in the first place.

We don't do team building, but usually organise company lunches/dinners for the usual holidays (Christmas lunch, CNY lo hei lunch, buka puasa dinner during Ramadan or just random makan sessions).

 

We have flown the staff to Bali (weekend trip after some of us attended a conference there earlier in the week) and KL (corporate get-together for the various staff in the region and training sessions), but to be honest i'll only attend the organised events/meals and after that bugger off on my own. I see their faces everyday in the office, I have no intention of seeing them during my free time as well.
