Team building activities is important to enhance employee working skills as well as their relationship skills. It's also a good break from all the stress in work. We had a great experience with Ripe Stuff. They were able to help us with our <a href="http://ripestuff.com/theRipeWorkshopComm.htm#presentation">communication skills as well as conflict resolution</a>.

Good stuff! I love how you interpreted the kayak experience. That ability helps people work effectively in groups. Team building is so important because it helps us build relationships. If we have done this to the best of our abilities we can work more effectively and be seen as a leader in our organization.

This is also an important life skill teachers can pass on to their students.

That's the risk you take. One would like to think that administrators/managers would also learn about people and be able to help them improve. I know that doesn't always happen but at least knowing makes it possible in theory.

But what if you find out during the "team building" you don't particularly want to a) work with those people and b) see them around teenagers?

Ours was pretty scary.
