Team Building Activities That ACTUALLY Work (2024)

The People Leaders Podcast

In this podcast, we address common queries about team building, providing practical examples and sharing insights from research on high-performing teams. We outline several team-building activities with specific focuses such as learning, collaboration, fun, connection, trust, problem-solving, conflict resolution, and goal setting.
Activities include watching and discussing a TED Talk, conducting the Spaghetti Challenge, cooking together, using the 'This Is Me' template for bonding, sharing significant personal items to build trust, engaging in problem-solving simulations, practising difficult conversations, and setting team goals using the SMART acronym.
These activities are designed to be low-cost and can be adapted for both face-to-face and virtual settings.
