Building a Raft Team Challenge
The rafts are assembled from thin, light logs. Barrels provide buoyancy. All elements are tied together with ropes. There are no screws or nails available!
What’s the difference between this programme and our classic raft-building event?
The teams are provided with the basic materials, but not with a manual or instructions how to build a raft. Together the participants have to figure out, decide and agree how best to approach and solve this task.
Time is also a deciding factor. Just as in business life, there's a deadline the teams have to meet. To achieve their goal the teams will have to focus on group dynamics and sharing the workload in an optimal way.
Option Giant Raft
Once each team has completed building their raft, the individual vessels are tied together to build one giant raft. Now the entire group has to navigate a stretch on the lake on that giant raft. This is particularly exciting as the individual teams now have to work together.
Onshore team challenge
The teams pass through various checkpoints where aspects of daily work life, such as cooperation, decision-making, communication, strategic development and a better understanding of each other’s personalities, are addressed and developed.
Barbecue and the weather
Enjoy a delicious barbecue on the shores of the lake with breathtaking views of the surrounding mountains. This group event can be held in any weather. Marquees are available for hire.
Team evaluation and coaching
Engaging a professional coach to observe your team at work will ensure that they, and the company, get the most from the whole experience. He or she will be on hand throughout the day to analyse performance, highlight achievements, address problems and help the team to utilise the lessons learnt back in the working environment.
This team-building activity is also available as a team event.
