Your Guide to Discover the Best Activities for Your Next Corporate Retreat

As a company specializing in planning company retreats, at Unicorn Labs, we know the first thing people think about when mentioning team-building is forced, corny icebreaker activities.

Team building does NOT have to be cliché.

In fact, you can capitalize on out-of-the-box team-building ideas to get the most out of your corporate retreat and help achieve team goals.

No matter what industry you're in, or the size of your team, you need a solid team to thrive.

Every company has its own specific needs, but strong bonds between each member are necessary regardless of other factors.

Team leaders try their best to foster a collaborative environment for their team, but sometimes a boost is needed — that's where corporate team-building retreats play an important role.

By allowing your employees to engage outside of the workplace and giving them opportunities to build stronger relationships, you're giving them the gift of connecting more effectively than in the office.

All social stigma and expectations are pushed to the side, which creates an opportunity for the team to relate to each other in new and captivating ways.

Team retreats are a rare occasion where spontaneous moments arise, and hilarious memories among coworkers are formed. The primary reason we go on retreats is to spend quality time together in a beautiful environment.

Below are some guidelines to select the perfect activities for your team. You will also find examples of team-building exercises that we know (after years of hosting retreats) have the most significant impact on teams.

Incorporate them in your next company retreat, and we look forward to hearing about your results!
