Team Building for Executives: How the Carolina Hurricanes Became NHL Champions - It's a question that's top of mind for most managing executives: "How can I get the most out of my staff?" In the hyper-competitive business environment of today, many businesses are becoming aware that a prerequisite of peak performance is a psychological understanding of actual human motivators. A basic behavioral understanding shows that frequently, things previously thought of as "intangibles" are often at the forefront of an individual's motivating factors. These intangibles relate to the innate desire in human beings to be part of something larger; to extend his or her circle of connectedness outward, past the family/friends sphere; and if possible, to instill a good dose of meaning in one's function at the workplace. The fact is, as a species the human desire for 'meaning' is at an all-time high.

Have you just closed the books on your most successful year ever? One of the best ways to motivate your employees to continue working hard is to reward work well done with fun. It's a simple enough concept, and one that is central to the concept of team building. People work harder when their hard work is noticed and appreciated. While a little extra in the pay cheque is always appreciated, there are other ways to show appreciation and recognition that can help cement the team spirit you've been working so hard to foster. Evaluating Your Team Building Activities - Team building has become one of the newest buzz words in the corporate lexicon. In fact, for at least the last decade surveys of business leaders in every industry have shown that the prime characteristic they look for in new hires is the ability to work with a team. And why not? Research has shown that when people work in teams, they can accomplish far more than a group of individuals working together. But not all team building activities are created equal. Over the last few years, some industry experts have leveled criticism at the 'quick-fix' attitude that has been adopted by many companies who attempt to create or sponsor their own team building activities. Planning A Team Building Weekend - One of the underlying concepts of a team building activity is that it is designed to foster at team spirit among the participants, and help them focus on what they need to do in day to day work in order to function effectively as a team.

Corporate Team Building - Shake 'Em Up To Wake 'Em Up - Team building has become somewhat of a buzz word in corporate circles over the past few years. Many corporate event planners toss the term 'corporate team building' around willy-nilly as part of their marketing talk - but their events don't always live up to the team building promise. For an event to actually transform and cement new ways of working together, it has to offer more than just lip service and a group trip to go fly-fishing.
