Team Building Exercises That Work

Project managers can face difficulties in bringing their team members together and collaborating effectively. To combat this, team building exercises can be an effective solution. Research has shown that such exercises have some factors in common, including involving everyone, not being one-time events, having continuity over time, having a definable purpose, and boosting skills that are useful for the project. Some team building ideas that have been proven to work include volunteering with the team, organizing shared break times, engaging in friendly competitive games, and conducting activities such as the back-to-back drawing or minefield game.
