Team Building

How Team Building Can Benefit Your Company

The definition of a team is a group of individuals working in a joint action towards a singular goal. It can therefore be said that without synergy, no team could possibly expect to succeed, making this factor much needed, especially during this economically difficult time. In order to achieve such synergy companies have been looking towards the benefits of team building , where both employees and employers are taught how to work side-by-side to the advantage of the company’s best interest.

However, team building is much more than merely playing a few games with colleagues, in fact, team building is as much a part of business as it is psychology. This is evident in psychologist Abraham Maslow’s 1943 paper on the hierarchy of human needs. Herein he explained how all human beings have five levels of need, ranging from the basic physiological human needs such as air, water, and food in order to survive, to the level of self-actualisation. In each and every level there is a need that ties in with the individual employees’ needs to a better life, but none more so than that of actualisation where your employee has the desire to achieve what they believe they are capable of doing. It is also this level which is of most interest to business owners and managers.

When our achievements as individuals are met, we strive to move onto the next object or goal. The same is applicable within teams. This is because working as a team not only sets out for individuals to carry out their specific tasks, but also afford unique them opportunities to grow as a person. EPL Way’s specialised team building programme will teach each member of your team to work together, to motivate, and to create synergy through effective communication.
