New Year Kickoff Meeting Activities for Effective Teamwork & Leadership

After the bustle of the holidays, a New Year kick off meeting is a great time to refocus. A team development workshop or hands-on teamwork skills activity is an effective way to get everyone thinking about how they can improve in the new year.  See more options in the PDF linked from this page.

• Think Like a Team – Incorporate learning into your New Year kick off meeting with a team development program about thinking styles, communication styles, and appreciating what others bring to the team.
• Team RESPECT – If your team struggles a bit, this team building can help them identify some of the rough spots, and agree on how to work on them.
• Team Strengths Profiles – Help everyone on your team identify more with their own strengths, as well as gain a greater appreciation for the strengths of their teammates. Also available for leaders with a focus on how their strengths impact their teams: Leader Strengths Profiles Workshop.
• Leadership Gauntlet –  Team leaders need to refocus in the New Year, too. This program gives team leaders tools for helping their teams succeed, and helps them get feedback on what skills they bring to the table, and which may need improvement.

Motivational Sales Meeting Activities for a Great 2022

One of the biggest barriers to successful sales is silos at work. But few people are motivated by another lecture about the importance of working together.  Our hands-on teamwork challenges get groups energized with some friendly competition or humor while highlighting the dangers of silos in the workplace and the importance of teamwork and sharing information.  See more options in the PDF on this page.

• Driven to Succeed – Our most popular New Year kick off meeting activity, this program has all of the fun and energy of a competition while emphasizing teamwork and breaking down silos.
• Teamwork Quest – This is a great bonding and teamwork skills program for groups of 5 to 50 people. A perfect New Year kick off meeting for a department or focused work group.
• Furious Birds –  Improve teamwork while competing to build the best catapult and knock down as many pigs as possible.
• Some Assembly Required –  A great way to start the New Year giving back, while gaining an appreciation of coworkers’ perspectives and improving communication.

Enhance Team Bonding to Tackle 2022 in a Spirit of Togetherness – Building Morale

One of the most important elements of a successful team is a sense of  trust and being able to rely on one another.  Sometimes teams need to revisit their code of conduct and do a bit of deep work, and sometimes they just need a forum for understanding one another better and overcoming some teamwork challenges together. We can help build that sense of camaraderie and trust as part of your New Year kick off meeting.  See more options in the PDF linked from this page.

• Teamwork Quest – This is a great bonding and teamwork skills program for groups of 5 to 50 people. A perfect New Year kick off meeting for a department or focused work group.
• Escape Room – available in both portable and virtual versions, our escape room programs keep everyone in the room engaged in the same escape scenario at the same time. A great mental and teamwork challenge.
  
• Team Networking (with Charity Networking option) – This fun program doubles as a networking event.  Between each round of games, table-teams are shuffled.  A great way to help coworkers interact with many other people while focusing on working together.
• Some Assembly Required –  A great way to start the New Year giving back, while gaining an appreciation of coworkers’ perspectives and improving communication.
• 1-Hour Team Building Activities – Many of our clients have limited time in their agendas for team building.  These 45-60 minute activities are designed for tight schedules.
