Chances are, when you read the words “team building exercises’ you began to envision a crowded room, probably the company conference room, where you and several more employees were gathered for a boring speech about how to work as a team to make the company more successful. These long meetings did nothing to make you or any other employee want to work harder, invest more time, or expel more energy to promote a more productive company. The only thing you really got from these meetings was a back ache, a head ache, and the need for a nap. Wait a minute; you were bonded with the other employees on the fact that you were miserable during the meeting.

If this is close to what you envision when you hear these words than your employees probably feel the same, because they have not yet been exposed to corporate entertaining that allowed them to unite with other members of the company over good food, and fun activities. It is the upper management that needs to get the ball rolling with events that cause the employees to want to participate, and to want to continue working with their fellow workers to provide the company with ...
... a productive and motivated staff.

You probably think that there is no way a corporate entertaining event could cause a sudden transformation in the employees to the point that you recognized the change in the amount of profits the company received. You are very wrong in that assumption though. If you would look back over your financial records you would notice a trend of upswings in the profit margins during times the employees were united by a common goal or holiday. The fact that the employees were happier made them work harder without even realizing they were doing so. This resulted in an increased profit margin, without the upper management having to lift a finger.

Now imagine what you can accomplish by implementing team building exercises, and events that cause the employees to feel more connected to each other on a more consistent basis. What if you scattered events through the year that provided the employees a chance to compete on a friendly basis, and earn small rewards like lunches. You could invest in your employees and cause the investment to pay off big time and you will not have to wait for a long stretch of time to see the results of your efforts.
You may not have any idea on how to start getting these types of events and challenges happening. You could possibly need to look up some companies that specialize in uniting the employees of other companies through these types of event programs. You can even find these professionals online that will teach you the methods you need to learn to make your company start growing by providing motivated workers in every department.

You can take your staff and give them a charity to support as a unit, and the mere presence of a common bond will increase their interest in the work place.
