The 2018 edition of the annual team building was in two events. The first instance was a half day team refresh at The Creative Nest Studio in Karen.  Here the team went through a valuable learning session in introspection and meditation – key skills in learning to function effectively in a busy and challenging environment. The team practiced ‘Power Yoga’ a variation from the traditional way where the team practiced a number of physical activities in addition to the meditative posture.

In addition to this and to energize the group, the team also went through a high energy dance session featuring Zumba professionals. This was good as it enhanced working together and dancing in rhythm following guided styles. This encouraged observation as well as coordination.

The end year episode was held in Mombasa at the Voyager Resort. Here the team engaged in multiple activities including water polo, aerobics, team strategy sessions and team coordination challenges.

These team building activities  create synergies improving results in workplace projects and strengthening teamwork. As staff completed building activities together, colleagues gained a stronger comprehension of each other’s strengths, weaknesses, and interests. This understanding will help us work even better together and energize future projects.
