When you work in an office, you get to know the people you work with well. This can be a good or bad thing depending on how you react to people and get along with others. If your office staff has a hard time dealing with others, or if team work is a pitfall, perhaps your office could use some team building. Team building is a relatively new concept, bringing people together in a positive way, in order to boost office moral. Team building is not only a great way to cut out a large amount of strife in your office work place, but it is also a good way to help your employees grow as people. Some of the following ideas are used to bring office co workers closer together and create tighter bonds. Office team building ideas: Build a mock house. Set up two or more teams. Provide all the necessary materials; use your vision; be creative, e.g., popsicle sticks or pencils, paper clips, gum, glue, tape, paper, plastic, carpet, etc. Place all the materials on a table and have each team select the items they need to build the house. Allow 20 minutes to complete the house. Determine which completed house can withstand water damage by using a contained water bucket dump environment. You could also apply wind resistance utilizing an item designed like the big bad wolf; create your own disaster. When completed discuss how each member worked and participated in the team. Celebrate: Provide the winners with a huge gold Star. Hang it from the ceiling for all to see. Ask the members of the winning team to pass it to each team member until all team members have had the Star.

Trivia Pursuit Put two teams together. Utilize words and programs from your daily staff and office work. Pursue the words for at least 20 minutes. At the completion, have a discussion with the group on how the support of other team members allowed them to win or not win and how that same type of interaction applies to their work life. Celebrate: Never forget a staff birthday. The company can put forth an effort to celebrate every persons birthday. This can mean a cake, an office gift or a simple card. All of these ideas will help the staff feel as if they are part of a team. Handing out chocolate bars or teats for a job well done also makes for a happy staff. Although it is not hard to create and come up with team building activities, it can be hard to find the right ones for your staff. If you find it is hard to create the right activities for your group, you can hire a team building company. These are fully staffed companies who can help your office function as a group, rather than separate entities. These teams are also able to help your office solve conflict in a positive way. Team building has been used in governments and universities for years, and the results have been quite astounding.
