Tips for successful Team Challenges and Games team building in Seattle

Find answers to frequently asked questions about booking Team Challenges and Games team events in Seattle

How can I make my Seattle team activity a success?

What should I remember when I plan my Seattle team event?

How do I pick the right Seattle activity for my team?

To pick the right activity, you need to understand two things about your team: what interests them and what makes them uncomfortable.

  • If you lead a small team, ask them directly. If you lead a large team, send out a survey.
  • Then, browse all activities on Spaciously and pick the ones that seem right.
  • Finally, ask your team to vote and book the event that the majority picked. The event isn't going to be everyone's first choice. That's okay! Next time, give priority to the people who voted against the first event.

What are the benefits of team-building events?

  • Team building activities improve communication, trust, and emotional intelligence.
  • Team building across organizations breaks down workplace and fosters a sense of unity—especially in the hybrid world.
  • New and unique group activities can reveal hidden talents within your team and encourage a culture of continuous learning and collaboration.

How to incorporate learning into fun team activities?

  • Pick activities that help your team develop the skills they need in the workplace. For example, rowing is great for developing communication skills.
  • At the beginning of the activity, name the skill that you team needs and why. Then, briefly talk about how the activity will help develop that skill.
  • At the end, pause for reflection. What did your team learn? Take photos. You can later use them to remind the team to practice the skill they learned.

How do I make sure everyone feels included in my team event?

Here is our guide on hosting team-building events that include everyone. In a nutshell:

  • Pick a low-pressure activity (less talking, more listening and doing)
  • Stay close to home (your office or your neighborhood)
  • Include everyone, including yourself

What are the key elements of a memorable Seattle team activity?

There are three things that will make your team event memorable (in a good way):

Is there a way to balance professionalism and fun in team events?

Our rule of thumb to having fun in a professional setting:

  • Understand people's preferences and boundaries
  • Communicate behavior norms before the event
  • Have a designated facilitator (make sure people on your team take turns being facilitators at different events)

Can team events help resolve conflicts?

One team event is not going to solve your team's problems. However, a thoughtfully-picked activity will give your team space to focus on skills, the lack of which led to a conflict in the first place. For example:

  • A tie-dye workshop can teach your team be more open to experimentation.
  • A Kintsugi workshop can help with vulnerability and acceptance of failure.
  • A coffee tasting class can show your team the difference that quality can make.

How do I measure the success of team-building events?

  • Our top tip: attend the event and observe the dynamics between your team members. You'll spot opportunities for growth!
  • Collect feedback at the end of the event.
  • If you set a skill development goal, track whether your team starts practicing these skills after the event.
