Team Building in the Philippines

Would you pay 500,000 pesos to support your team? Would you give them the opportunity to develop themselves, help them build their relationship, and equip them to achieve their goals? Team building, when it is designed to meet these objectives, may bring you millions.

Unfortunately, most companies are not certain that their next team building workshop can truly bring them millions. Team building in the Philippines is selling like hotcakes. Almost every month, a new resort transform itself into a team building venue. There is also a growing number of facilitators who ?do? team building because it is the ?in? thing. And when professionals are just following the flow, they do not think. When they allow the venue manager or the team building facilitators to plan and implement everything for them, you know that they are wasting their time, effort, and money.

When an HR manager ask what games I play, instead of how I can accomplish their objectives, I know that they will soon waste their money with someone who will give them ?packages?. Something must be done to address this ignorance.

Ask:
1. How can these team building meet our business objectives?
2. What team development framework are we using? Why?
3. What are the alternatives to a team building workshop?
4. What are the sustaining activities?
5. Do we really need to do it now?
6. Do we really need help from outside?
7. How are we going to measure our success?
8. Are we asking the right questions?

Ask more questions. But always remember number 8.

You are a leader. Team building exercises are powerful tools to increase your organization?s competence and to develop your desired culture. Make the most of your opportunity. Study. Think before you do.
