Team Building

Team Building Canoe Trip:

If you are looking for team building activities, a canoe trip is a great way to get your team engaged and energized! As stated in their “State of the American Workforce,” Gallup found that only 33% of Americans are engaged at work. And yet, an engaged workforce is key to the success of organizations. So if you’re wondering what else you can do to make a positive difference, you’ve taken the first step toward improving employee moral and your organization’s culture.

Use team building activities to help your employees:

  • Have a sense of a greater work life balance and better personal well being.
  • Become allies and advocates for your organization.
  • Become more engaged and exhibit higher performance.

Further research suggests that team building activities are very effective in four main areas: goal setting, interpersonal relations, problem solving, and role clarification. The absence of any of these skills and activities contribute to disengagement and dissatisfaction. Research also suggests that pairing teams into smaller groups increases performance outcomes on the job.

Canoeing on the beautiful Caney Fork River is the perfect backdrop where nature steps in and the hustle and bustle of busy phones and paperwork disappear. In addition, canoeing is a natural team building activity, requiring communication and working together toward a desired goal.

When paddling down river, your team will learn to communicate and work together as they steer and paddle their boats down the river. This is because this type of activity provides a relaxing and comfortable environment for employees to interact away from the pressure of the workplace setting.

Want a More Casual Approach to Team Building Activities? Here Are a Few Ideas You Can Implement On Your Own!

Introduce some friendly competition with our team challenges, too. Come with your own plan or let us help set up a team-build method by following our easy guide/drive exercise.

Utilizing either a canoe or tandem kayak:

  • Seat 1 works as the “guide” looking out for hazards and communicates to their partner which way to steer the boat.
  • Seat 2 occupies the “driver” position controlling the direction of the boat by acting as a rudder.
