24 Jun Top 10 Summer Team Building
Top 10 summertime activities
June is almost over and the air-conditioning wars have been dividing even the most affectionate colleagues for a while, holidays are still far away but the work deadlines are, on the contrary, incredibly close…
We like overcoming such paradoxes and stimulating fresh ideas with some action and a heavy amount of fun, especially in Summer because no other season suits so well to open-air activities. Our suggestions are multiple: you could explore the wonders of Dubai guided by an iPad or take an adventure in the Swiss Alps like a survival expert! You actually could just build the most fanciful carton boat ever together with your team (making it resistant would be useful too, as you might need to test it in the swimming pool!) and treat yourselves with a refreshing customized cocktail enjoying each other’s company. Take a look at our new video to get a full idea of the captivating activities that TeamWorking has to offer in Italy and around the world!
1. Cocktail Challenge
