Instilling a great sense of team and self worth in your employees doe

not have to cost an arm and a leg. This can be not only cost effective

but free! Nothing about team building has to be fancy or expensive; in

fact it can be more fun to get creative with a limited budget. Team

building has gone through a large many studies and research phases in

order to determine if it really does work. The conclusions were, yes

team building has a huge impact on the way that businesses are run

and the way that people work together.

Team building deepens and creates trust between co workers and

management teams; this is something that is no easily gained. The

reason that trust is so important in a work environment is because in

order for one person to do a job correctly, they will need to ask for help

from others. If you want to do some free team building exercises based

on trust, you can play games such as: catch me, 2 truths 1 lie and

human knot.

Team building also works on team work. Learning how to accept help

from others, and help others can be a hard lesson for some to learn.

Games such as: G.P.S games, gumball building and mock problem

solving. All of these games are free (if you have the G.P.S units) and can

help teams learn more about the way team work needs to be done.

Creating bonds is important when you work on a team, and these

bonds can last a lifetime. Team building can help create these bonds

and allow them to grow. If you are looking to create bonds within the

work place, perhaps some of these team building ideas can help:

celebrate birthdays, play outdoor games and hold staff picnics. These

events and activities can help your team bond outside of work hours.

The basic principal of team building is learning about each other and

accepting people for who they are. A work environment can never do

well when people do not get along or have poor team spirit. Team

building will also help productivity go up, and create a happier

atmosphere in which to be. None of these things cost money, and every

person who attends these team building sessions will feel like they are

part of a community, rather then a workplace. Below are a few more

ideas on how to make team building exercises free at your workplace!

- Field games

- Ice breakers (name games, quizzes)

- The wallet game (empty contents and show the group)

- Capture the flag (2 teams are needed)

- Create a group flag ( put staff in groups of 3 and each team can

create a flag)

- Lunch together
