Re: Team building sctivities

Yes, Carol, I've led lots of teambuilding sessions and will go anywhere within CT/Western MA to do them with teams at no charge.
Most of mine were done with things I've adapted from the Internet, and are copyrighted so I haven't got a whitepaper of them.
Since I was never on a team for engineering reasons, I don't often include those types of activities in my sessions. We're not all engineering types on teams! :-) Problem-solving, yes.
I have posted my conference presentation on integrating introverts like me into your teams in the NEMO website. Teambuilding activities are particularly important for us introverts because being with others drains our energy - so we may naturally have an aversion to these types of events. However, it forces us to learn to work with others, and if done properly, also contains activities where we can work individually then come together as a team.
