Many companies are now looking in to or offering group bonding breaks for their employees. This is similar to group bonding exercises that many of us have been on where you have to solve problems together, but allows colleges to spend more time getting to know each other by socialising.
Some examples of these types of trips are groups of employees being sent to trek up Snowdonia mountain and then afterwards meet up in a hotel where they are all staying for dinner and drinks. This is proving to have quite a positive impact on staff morale and working together as a team, which in turns improves the whole productivity of a company.
Although this can be costly for a company, research has shown that this money is made back two fold over a short period of time due to the increased work level. Why not suggest one to your company and see what they think?
