Team building versus team development: you decide. Team building is mainly about mutual trust, getting rid of obstacles, breaking the ice. When we develop a team, these attributes serve as a base for our future steps.
The awareness of consequences the participants’ actions have on team performance is increased. Who plays which role and why? Which mutual goals are targeted and how does each individual identify themselves with these?
basecamps’ team development seminars take place in conference rooms or outdoors. We prefer the third dimension mainly because in outdoor activities no behaviour pattern remains undetected. Experiences are analysed in follow-up sessions and compared one to one with situations out of a business environment.
Emphasis in team development lies in fostering strength, but we also take into account and analyse motives which prevent or hinder moving on.
