Find out more about training resources, games for training, business games and activities for team building
As a leading supplier of effective training resources and team building activities we are always asked questions on corporate training. This site is dedicated to answering those questions and providing information to companies and organisations considering an indoor or outdoor teambuilding activity and business games. So let us start by answering some key questions:
What training resources do you recommend?
Icebreakers and training games help participants to see things differently and use different thinking styles. This method of learning also generates a positive experience when incorporated with important or critical subject matter.
Playing a game generates a learning experience to support your training programmes and enrich the learning experience for delegates. Games and training activities also appeal to the emotive side of learning; learners feel the excitement, pressures, behaviours and perspectives.
All of our games and materials have been extensively tried and tested over a number of years. They are practical, easy to understand and use and save numerous hours preparing for a session.
What about business games?
Business games help model the realities of the business world by simulating business theories and practices in controlled game environments.
Games about business often mimic the cause-and-effect relationship that exists between business decisions and economic outcomes. Depending on the game you can gain insight into topics such as:
- account management and managing a budget
- buying and selling products or commodities
- customer needs
- decision making and problems solving
- improving a failing business
- negotiation
- ordering and pricing
- planning and project management
- risk taking
- setting targets and strategies
- starting up a business
- teamwork
Business games can also help inspire creative ideas for real-world business ventures. The strategies can translate to insights in real-world business dealings and help broaden players’ business horizons and create new opportunities.
Get the competitive edge in the real world by sharpening your business skills with a business simulation game.
What about activities for team building?
Team building games are ideal to improve the productivity of a team and build on their trust and ensure that all members are comfortable with each other. There are many advantages to using team building games, even if you feel that your team is working really well and don't need to be more efficient. It is known that games are one of the best ways to get acquainted with the individuals on board. In a busy workplace people often fail to realise the importance of knowing their colleagues and working with each other for the benefit of the organisation.
An effective team building event teaches people that everyone is there to work and prosper, and individual results are not the only thing that matters.
Before deciding on what team building event to do, look at what you want to achieve from doing it. Discuss these with a team building provider and see what they recommend to meet those needs. Use new games as your team grows bigger so that older members don't get bored playing the same games. A team game is only a success if it satisfies your objectives and the team enjoyed it.
