Offsite Team Building: Does Your Company Need It?

Team building is, in the broad sense of the term, the process of forming and improving a team. Ideally, this is a complex of diverse activities aimed at forming an effective team, competent distribution of roles, and productive interaction of team members. In the process of team building, the regularity and diversity of events play a role.

In addition to specially thought-out team-building activities in the office, and at the workplace, there is a practice of offsite team-building. The option is not cheap as it also includes charter bus rental but it gives good results.

Let’s look at this method of working with the team and figure out when it is appropriate, why it is needed, how to choose coach bus rental, and what to do to make it most effective.

When is offsite team building using a charter bus appropriate?

Offsite team building is a way to reboot the team:

  • before working on a new project;
  • when new rules of interaction are introduced;
  • when it is necessary to prepare the team for new working conditions;
  • when you need to see the work of the team and each individual in an unbiased way;
  • when it is necessary to assess the personal competencies and psychological qualities of each team member in practice.

Goals and objectives of field team building

Offsite team building in nature is not identical to going out with a team for kebabs, you usually meet in the early morning and go outside the city for the whole day on coach buses. A weekend with colleagues can be a pleasant pastime, a good rest, but it will hardly help to reset the collective mind.

Team building in nature involves:

  • setting a measurable goal;
  • decomposition of a goal into micro-tasks;
  • a well-thought-out route to achieve the goal;
  • as an option, immersion in the light version of real conditions.

How to rent a bus for a corporate party

Choosing a bus charter for a corporate event should be guided not only by personal preferences but also by the requirements for the bus established by the norms of legislation. In addition to the serviceable technical condition and the availability of a certificate of conformity, it is necessary to check the travel pass, which must contain a note on the permission to carry out road traffic. You should check the first aid kit. It should contain medicines and equipment for first aid.

If a rented bus for transporting people to a corporate event meets all the requirements, this indicates that the charter bus company is ready to act in the interests of the customer and its business.

While choosing a bus rental consider the number of people to choose the appropriate vehicle and remember that safety is first so this is not the point where it is possible to save money. Choose only trusted service providers like BCS Bus Charter rental.

Methods of organising field team building

At the place of organization, team building can be held in the city or outdoors, indoors or outdoors.

In terms of duration, it can be one day or two days. If the goal of organizing team building is to increase the loyalty of employees and family members to the company, two-day weekends with families, and corporate trips to nature make sense, but it is also important to carefully consider the program of the event.

Offsite team building for the weekend: advantages and disadvantages

Advantages

  • You can work out large-scale goals.
  • Restarts employees well.
  • Allows you to look at the team in action not only in combat conditions but also in an informal setting.
  • You can consider the problems that exist in the team, which cannot be considered at a one-day training.
  • You can consider the potential of new employees.

Disadvantages

  • More expensive than the local team building + banquet format.
  • It is required to solve the issue of overnight accommodation.
  • On weekends, most employees prefer to be with their families and go about their business.
  • Negative attitude on the part of employees if the corporate culture is not well developed enough.
  • The necessity to pay for the bus rentals.
  • It is up to you to decide whether to use offsite team building in your company.
  • It is important to formulate the goals of team building, identify problems and find their solution.
  • Invest in the team, shape the corporate culture following the goals and values of the company, and then you will be successful, close in scale to the success of the largest companies.
