Elevated Custom Activities For Team Building Events

Enhance your next corporate event with a completely custom and highly-engaging activity that is guaranteed to bring your group together.

Team Building

If you’re tasked with planning ongoing team building events or looking for a special one-off activity that will wow your employees, a custom hunt or escape room experience really makes an impact, whether your goals are… 

Enhancing Team Bonding

In this day and age when people are isolated in their cubicles and communicate, more often than not, via text and email, it’s essential to provide opportunities for people to connect in person.  Teammates really gain insight into their colleagues’ hearts and minds as they work together to complete challenges and puzzle out clues. 

Building Team Dynamics

There are certain characteristics you want to encourage within your team that naturally come to the forefront when they are solving clues. Teams use communication skills to talk through possible answers. They put their problem solving and strategic thinking expertise to the test. And using creativity and time management is key when it comes to getting results. 

Reenforcing Training

Studies show that active learners retain 93.5% of information compared to only 79% through passive methods. When teammates have to use product or company information to solve a clue or use it to bring a challenge to life, it sticks in their brains way more than any dry PowerPoint could. 

Celebrating

Mark momentous occasions with something memorable. Imagine commemorating someone’s retirement with a custom hunt that recalls information about their career. Did your team meet a milestone? Use a scavenger hunt that leads them to their reward! If there’s an occasion, we can design a hunt or escape experience that honors it. 

Take a Break

Taking breaks boosts productivity by 13% and what better way to let go of pent up energy than to move around to complete a scavenger hunt? Don’t have the space to move around? Have them switch gears and challenge their brains in a different way by trying to escape! 

Explore a Location

Oftentimes meetings are held at gorgeous locations. Why not have your group go out and about to enjoy it while participating in a scavenger hunt vs. just seeing it from the conference room window? Or if your meeting is in a less than picturesque location, get them out of that windowless room and go to a nearby area of interest to explore it via a scavenger hunt.

Customized Retirement Hunt - A Case Study

A CEO of a Fortune 500 financial firm was getting ready to retire after 33 years with the organization. His team surprised him with a custom scavenger hunt that celebrated key accomplishments during his career. Some challenges also gave his team insight into how he’d be enjoying his retirement by incorporating challenges that brought his personal passions of golf, skiing and grandkids to the forefront. The beauty of the custom event was that challenges were formatted so everyone who participated was able to join in the fun no matter how well they knew the CEO and all got to know him a little bit better regardless. In addition to honoring this beloved executive, the team themselves got to go out and take a break from their meetings to explore a gorgeous resort in the Catskills, all while getting to know one another better during the journey.
