Our 10 unusual activities

1 - Biotopia: CSR adventure for animal species

We've said that there are no real rankings, but this Team Building activity is certainly our favourite, as it touches on a theme that's close to our hearts: CSR

This time, it's a far cry from the escape game, with everyone locked in a room.

Come and retrace the journey of Baptiste Merle, a nature lover who has travelled the world to bear witness to the beauty of nature through his art of photography.

It's an interactive photo exhibition set up in the outdoor space of your choice, such as a park, where you'll go around collecting clues and

solve the riddles.

In this original, life-size event, you'll be immersed in an experience that's a cross between immersive theatre and an augmented reality game.

Whether there are 10 or 200 of you, this team-building activity will charm you in just 2 hours!

Don't wait, raise your team's awareness of sustainable development issues while you play!

2 - The "KhooLanta of the environment": the Planet Olympics

You've heard of corporate Koh-Lanta, but we're taking it one step further by offering you challenges on environmental themes.

Put your team spirit to the test by competing against each other around the 4 natural elements: earth, air, wind and fire.

Forget the treasure hunt, try instead to light a fire with natural charcoal, collect as much rubbish as you can with an eco-trap on a course littered with rubbish,

carry as much water as you can and fill a bucket using large bamboos...

You're guaranteed to have a good laugh and a great time! Believe us, no one will be bored or short of ideas.

Ideal outdoors, but can also be played indoors. Offer your company a "responsible" activity!

It's something we carry around with us every day, and it's a distinguishing mark for many people... no, it's not money, it's clothes!

Access to clothes has never been so easy.

Nowadays, everything can be bought, resold or thrown away... Online sites are legion. You can buy a T-shirt online for an evening out... then do the same with a pair of jeans...

Involve your colleagues in raising awareness by taking part in a fun and original ESR workshop.

The aim of this "serious game" is to raise awareness and educate participants about environmental issues and the downside of the textile industry.

The workshop also aims to explain the broad outlines of actions that can be taken to achieve more sustainable fashion and promote the 'slow fashion' way of life, without resorting to 'fashion bashing'

fashion Bashing', and then to open up discussions between participants on the subject. This is a great opportunity to boost your group's creativity while

raising awareness of a just cause!

FAQ

What is team building?

The term "team building" is used in companies to encourage cohesion, motivation and team communication.

The principle of team building is to get employees to take part in an activity together, outside a traditional working environment. Several studies have shown that promoting mutual support and solidarity by giving employees common objectives helps to increase their productivity.

Team building can take many different forms and cover many different areas, depending on your objectives: sports activities, escape games, coaching sessions, culinary workshops, etc.

How do you organise a Team Building event?

First of all, you need to define the objectives of the team building: strengthening internal team cohesion, improving communication, well-being at work or team spirit. Boost team motivation? Resolve a particular conflict? clarify responsibilities? The objectives can be many and varied.

Once the objective(s) has/have been defined, the profile of the participants needs to be analysed: what is their age range? do they tend to be sporty? are there more women than men? what are their expectations? ...

Now you're ready to look for an activity that suits your audience and meets the objectives of your Team Building event. All that's left is to think about how your day will unfold and when you'll be carrying out the activity, and then to ask your management about the budgetary constraints.

At Whereez, we regularly advise our customers to be as clear as possible about management's needs and constraints, so as to avoid spending too much energy looking for a 5-legged activity!

Last but not least, be innovative and try to get off the beaten track by offering unusual activities selected by a specialist agency like Whereez.

How much does Team Building cost?

The first reflex we have with our customers is to think in terms of budget per person. When you organise a Team Building event, we don't know the number of participants in advance.

However, your management has certainly asked you to respect a dedicated budget. So how do you keep to this budget?

First of all, we advise you to negotiate a budget per person with your management. This will allow you to cover yourself against an unexpected increase in the number of participants, for example.

The price of a team building event varies according to a number of criteria. Here are a few examples of criteria that will affect the price of a team building event:

- The location chosen for the team building. The greater the distance to be covered, the more you are exposed to travel costs, which may be more or less significant depending on the equipment to be transported, access to public transport and the need to cover the living expenses of the leaders (accommodation, meals, etc.)

- The duration of the team building: the longer it takes, the more it costs!

- The type of activities andentertainment (Escape game, Virtual reality, Murder party, Treasure hunt...)

- The number of participants. Many Team Building activities charge by the number of people, or in increments (the increments very often correspond to the number of facilitators required to ensure the workshop runs smoothly)

- The number of facilitators and their scarcity. For the same mixology workshop, it will be more expensive if it is run by a very well-known mixologist, for example. We could take the same example with a chef for a cookery workshop.

- The equipment required

- The objectives of the team building event (team building, motivation, communication, company seminar, etc.).

As you can see, there are plenty of criteria to explain the price of a Team Building event. In our experience, a reasonable range would be to find activities costing between €30 and €80-90 per person, excluding VAT.
