Teambuilding

About this training

Teaching people how to cooperate in a constructive way is the target of Expert Academy's teambuilding program. Thanks to our long-standing experience with working with groups and building of teams on various levels within an organisation, we were able to build up our own expertise to ensure that teams can function in a more efficient and effective way. 

Each teambuilding program is tailor-made and takes into account  the nature and the specific needs of your organisation and the team in particular.

Teambuilding activities may vary in duration (ranging from a couple of hours up to several days). Some organisations opt for Teambuilding as a kick off for intensive training sessions in smaller groups. 

Program

Expert Academy provides tailor-made training sessions and adapts to the program of the client organisation. Each organisation is different and requires different accents with regard to teambuilding exercises, tasks and activities. We gladly listen to your needs, expectations and questions.

Below, you will find some examples of this:

Target group

Teambuilding is aimed at existing or newly composed teams, from all sectors.  The participants may or may not know each other, but they share a common goal. Cooperation, communication and team spirit require extra attention. 

Approach

A teambuilding trajectory will always be elaborated according to the specific needs of your organisation. You will receive a personalized proposal which perfectly corresponds to your needs, wishes and goals.  Everyone will be invited to cooperate during the Teambuilding day. Even the most stubborn minds are put to the test. Also shy and introvert team members are challenged to give their best. All of this is done with respect for the abilities and restrictions of each participant. The Expert Academy trainers are able to motivate and inspire a large group of people. They make an important contribution in their capacity as process consultant and they are experts in the field of group dynamics.

An Expert Academy teambuilding always combines  fun and content: themes around communication, assertiveness and conflict management are addressed in an accessible and inspiring way.

PRACTICAL - Teambuildings can be organized either at the workplace or in a residential setting, whether in Belgium or abroad. Expert Academy recommends to choose an external location, in order to take some distance from daily routine. Upon your request, we can also propose a suitable location.
