30th August 2011 - Owing to the increasing differences among members of any team such as educational, sports, religious or even companies it has become a necessity to appoint Team Building faculties to bring in a vicissitude in the behavior of the team members. The team building activities conducted by them are very helpful and bring a change not just in the behavior of the team members but also in the overall performance of the group.
The concept of team building is to develop a feeling of unity in diversity. It might not be an easy errand and require lot of efforts from the consultant appointed for performing such job. These consultants may even have to face harsh and unwelcoming attitude from the team members. It is only because of their patience and perseverance that they still survive in the long run and emerge victorious.
Encouraging the team to collaborate with the co-members in a friendly attitude is the prime motive of such activities. These tasks may be simple in the initial stages and gradually become more complex. The duration of these tasks also vary and can range between few hours to even few days. The tasks which are simple are very funny and humorous and can be a child’s play while the complex tasks may involve some tedious efforts.
The complex tasks are designed keeping the elderly in minds and are suitable only to be performed by grown-ups. The prime motive of the complex tasks is to enable each team member to recognize their strength as well as their weakness. These also are targeted towards the needs of the team members and help the consultants to understand each member in a much better way.
The complex tasks that extend over few days are actually composed of many tasks conjoined together. Some of the demotic among them are the rope tasks and the corporate drumming. These tasks if successfully completed can bring a very healthy change in the attitude of the members. Self regulation among the members is the key to success and this is effectively developed in the members after successful completion of such Team Building activities.
