Build-a-Bike for Team Building


This team building event will energize your team, help them communicate more effectively and get them active, tackle the speed bumps thrown at that all the while having fun. We do this by giving each team most, but not all, of the resources they need completely build a bicycle.

The equipment necessary to completely finish a bicycle is found in the resource center or with the other teams. Teams must come together, share resources and align strategies in order to be successful. The resource center is a centrally located pile of ALL parts for ALL bike and ALL tools needed to ALL teams. Team runners are only permitted to secure one part or one tool per visit to the resource center.

Business Application

Workshop sessions include but are not limited to:

  • Brainstorming
  • Problem SolvingCommunicating better as a team
  • Identifying strengths of individual team members
  • Collaborating better as a team and across teams/departments
  • Realizing that departments and individuals within a organization can't act independently. When the team works together, they accomplish a lot more
  • Having tons of fun in the process while doing something for charity

Part of the give and take between teams creates challenges around cooperation and collaboration vs. competition, breaking the "silo effect" and communicating effectively across departments. The teams engage in a self-facilitated debrief and explore ideas on how to break down these barriers between teams. At the end of the debrief; each team will present their key learning and insights to the other teams.
