Check out our top ideas for corporate integration events and engaging team building that will help you himself integrate!
1. Criminal investigations with a detective plot – the most frequently chosen theme for corporate team-building events!
Do you enjoy crime series and podcasts? Great, because you're about to face a challenge – solving a murder mystery! Your company's employees will take on the role of investigators. Based on evidence, circumstantial evidence, and their own intuition, they must determine the motive for the murder and identify the culprit. In addition to analyzing the evidence, you'll also interview witnesses ! But will you manage to obtain valuable information? Will you agree on your judgments? Only then will it be clear whether you can exchange information and work together to accuse the right person and avoid jailing someone "for being innocent"!
Fictionalized investigations with a detective theme and live interrogation of actors are the most exciting among our corporate events. This is because they teach communication skills , are focused on taking the initiative , and listening to each other. After the investigation, participants engage in long-term discussions, exchanging insights on the evidence and the pursuit of truth. You can choose from several intriguing crime stories , which you can find here . Or perhaps you have an idea for a different theme, perhaps related to your industry? Let us know. We'll create an event plan tailored to your company!
2. Field games
We can organize a team-building game for your company both in the city and in a green space. Then, in the chosen location, we arrange tasks and puzzles tailored to the game's theme. Participants navigate the designated area in teams of 4-8 people, guided by a map, GPS, or other clues. Their goal is to reach each checkpoint and successfully complete the task. Some checkpoints are self-service , while others are staffed by our animators . At the agreed-upon time , you return to the finish line , where we tally the points , select the winners , and award prizes.
We organize both summer and winter outdoor games – no season is bad for fun! The outdoor game organized in winter on the summit of Skrzyczne for Jack Wolfskin is the best example ! The challenges you'll encounter in our outdoor team-building games for companies are diverse. You won't find monotonous and trivial tasks like "pass a balloon between people" here. We tailor the game's duration and character, such as whether you have to run through the forest and cover many kilometers or less, to your employee team-building plan and preferences. And what exactly do our games look like? Check it out here!
3. Mobile Escape Rooms – recommended for corporate integration events!
Mobile mystery rooms are a great addition to corporate team-building events, parties, and picnics . Corporations and smaller companies often choose escape rooms as a form of education and team-building for their employees, for example, during a healthy week at work, an evening gala, or a team-building retreat. The theme of the escape room can be related to your industry , such as medicine, cosmetics, finance, or IT. We set up mobile escape rooms in hotels, apartment buildings, restaurants, in shipping containers, or even in outdoor tents. The set design is tailored to the theme , and the puzzles are tied to the specific event. We organize dedicated escape rooms based on a personalized scenario or one of the themes you can choose from.
4. Questing – an educational field game
Quest is an original game combining elements of urban and outdoor games , geocaching, and scout scavenger hunts. You can organize it at your company for your employees or during a picnic or corporate event. Participants independently navigate a defined area, searching for puzzles hidden throughout the city or office . The tasks they must find and solve are available in paper form or as a mobile app on a smartphone.
Questing is a great way to onboard new employees, organize training, for example, on occupational health and safety or fire protection in a unique way, promote a new product, or explore a new office location . Imagine new employees receiving an office map as part of their onboarding, instead of boring training, and solving puzzles to discover a secret password or find a treasure (which is, of course, the coffee machine! :P)! Furthermore, the tasks themselves can convey important information related to the company's operations. This way, by searching for hidden curiosities, they can learn about the entire office space , other team members , and company rules – all while having a great time ! Read more about questing here.
5. Challenge Boxes – puzzle rooms locked in a box!
Before you lies a briefcase – a small, mobile escape room . You and your team have an important mission – disarm the box and find the hidden compartment to intercept secret foreign intelligence messages using… a hand-assembled radio ! The Mystery Box is a mysterious briefcase containing a series of multi-level, complex puzzles. But how do you open it? You'll need to enter a series of codes to get inside the box. You have a short time to solve them. Once you've mastered the puzzles and cracked all the codes, you'll advance to the next level.
Here, you'll encounter not only challenging logic and skill challenges , 3D imagination, decoding, manual puzzles, and mazes, but also surprising mechanisms and unique sequences . Only effective communication and teamwork will reveal the next layers of the puzzles . See what it's like to play in a challenge box!
6. Online integration – connecting people!
If your company works remotely , or your team is scattered across Poland or the world, and organizing a live meeting is difficult, an online team-building event is the perfect solution! Thanks to our friends, such as Teams, Zoom, Google Meet, and Eyeson, we're not limited by location, weather, or the thousands of kilometers separating remote teams. Our online team-building games include : game shows inspired by the cult TV show "Familiada," virtual escape rooms, and Crime Show , a fictionalized investigation based on criminal stories – our bestseller – the most advanced form of online entertainment.
During the COVID-19 pandemic, we organized dozens of online team-building events, bringing the team-building effects we achieve in the real world to the internet. This ensures that online team-building isn't a weaker version of in-person team-building . After our team-building events, we often hear, "Wow, we never thought it would be so much fun to have a company meeting on a laptop!" Check out our online team-building ideas!
7. Team-building trips and picnics
Organizing corporate team-building events and corporate retreats at our agency is like the plot of a good movie . Imagine that, as a company employee, you receive an unusual email with an encrypted message. You don't know the day or hour when you'll receive a call from MI6 informing you of a secret gathering of agents at a certain hotel. This is how we "hook" participants even before the fun begins! One by one, you begin to discover the next stages of the game, and from the day you leave, everything can be our plot.
We'll tie the entire trip together with a storyline that leads you—just like in a good novel—by following a thread to the ball of yarn and discovering the secret we've prepared for you. This keeps everyone engaged in the fun, and participants engage naturally in the activities , discovering their hidden talents.
