Corporate Team Building Activities

Building Trust is based on its name: TRUST. The program is designed to illustrate this critical element of a team through carefully designed scenarios to help participants learn more about whether they trust themselves as well as their capacity to trust others. Facilitated debriefs after each activity and interactive takeaway sessions help participants process their experience and relate learning to work and life.

Navigating change explores how we manage the unexpected. The program is designed to show how circumstances can change without warning and participants must keep their wits about them, while using their critical thinking skills. Facilitated debriefs after each activity and interactive takeaway sessions help participants process their experience and relate learning to work and life.

Bargaining and Negotiation is designed based on creating a scenario whereby each group is required to build an item, and in order to succeed, they need to use their available resources to obtain all the required materials. The activity is timed and there are breakouts for strategizing, assessing resources, and negotiations with other groups. First team to complete building their item, wins!

Leaders in Action takes the team through scenarios that give participants the opportunity to lead as well as follow. This program is designed to be integrated into an organization’s L&D programs to be used as a breakthrough experience or grand finale. The selected activities are designed to build self-awareness and help teams understand themselves and each other. Facilitated debriefs after each activity and interactive takeaway sessions help participants process their experience and relate learning to work and life.

“Corporate culture matters. How management chooses to treat its people impacts everything — for better or for worse”, Simon Sinek. This workshop is designed based on concepts from Daniel Coyle, Amy Edmondson, Brené Brown, and Simon Sinek and inspects:

• Psychological Safety
• Vulnerability, and
• Purpose.

Activities bring out behaviors and character as a basis of discussion in order to help develop an understanding of the team’s underlying culture. Participants will solve problems, negotiate, strategize and collaborate to work through challenges. The objective of the workshop is to create a team purpose through facilitation and experiential learning.

Team Dynamics utilizes the psychometric tool, Reiss Motivation Profile (RMP) to help teams and leaders explore their values, motivations and leadership styles. Understanding self and connecting as a team improves each individual’s ability to navigate through conversations, actions and behaviors. In this program participants comprehend the key terms of RMP language and work with Aventura facilitators to interpret their personal results to learn more about themselves, each other, explore barriers of effective teamwork and create their collaboration agreement.

Activities bring out behaviors and character as a basis of discussion in order to help develop understanding of values and motivations. Participants will solve problems, negotiate, strategize and collaborate to work through challenges. The team creates a team pact using the terms and methodologies of the Reiss Motivation Profile.

A sustainability & nature arts program in our Ghaf tree forest that requires collaboration, communication and coordination. The group is split into teams of 6 - 10 and Aventura Facilitators work with the group to share a sustainability and nature arts program. The sustainability program includes activities such as: how to make paper; how to make natural pesticide; explore the UAE flora & fauna; and more.

The Nature Arts program begins with a walk through the forest, where participants gather materials for a collaborative piece of art. The team is guided to work together to determine what they want the “big picture” to look like and then each participant is given a 12x12 inch canvas to create their part of the vision. Once each person’s piece is completed, the pieces are joined together, and the final vision emerges. Each person gets to take their piece home as a reminder of their joint effort and vision.

Aventura Competitions promote collaboration, communication and problem solving amongst teams. With 35,000 sqm of space, Aventura can design all kinds of competitions that are fun and engaging, including a treasure hunt or amazing race. Groups are split into teams and each team must work together through multiple activities to achieve the highest score. Clues and resources help them along the way. Competitions are great for building camaraderie, bonding and breaking the ice. The winning team gets bragging rights and an Aventura Prize!
