Northern Virginia Escape Room Releases List of Team Bonding Activities

Fairfax, VA, July 20, 2019 --(PR.com)-- Room Escape Fairfax, a Northern Virginia escape room, recently released a blog listing fun team bonding activities for employers to consider. These activities can promote better teamwork and communication in the office, making them an excellent professional development tool.

Team bonding events should be designed to help your employees become more comfortable around each other, communicate and manage time better, and work more effectively as a team. Spending a few hours outside of the office or simply away from the desk can re-energize your group and allow them to learn new skills in a fresh setting. By making time to connect over something other than work, you create a more trusting environment and encourage employees to see each other as resources that can help them and the company succeed.

Team bonding activities can be as simple or involved as you would like them to be, and take place everywhere from the break room to the city streets. Your team might enjoy a low-key potluck lunch where they are invited to bring a dish from a beloved family recipe or favorite cuisine. For those who'd rather not cook, a happy hour gathering at a nearby bar can provide a similar opportunity for conversation and connection. Day-long retreats can help employees reflect on particular themes, such as teamwork or creative thinking, through a series of related activities that allow them to take a deep dive into each idea. If you are looking for a more active approach, consider a scavenger hunt to help employees use their critical thinking and teamwork skills or rec sports for a recurring gathering that can help deepen connections. Escape rooms, meanwhile, offer a quick event that makes a big impact. This activity tests communication, critical thinking, time management, teamwork, and more as groups try to solve puzzles and escape. With so many valuable lessons learned in just an hour, escape rooms are a highly effective (and extremely popular) team bonding activity.
