Scavenger hunts are one way to engage employees, engender team spirit, competitiveness, and a desire to attain goals, complete tasks, solve problems, and overcome challenges – just like every day at the office. A poll done by the American Psychological Association shows that there are obvious benefits to organizations for team building events and activities – companies with engaged employees report 2.5x higher revenues than competitors with disengaged employees. Ninety-three percent of employees who say they feel valued at their job report that they are motivated to do their best work. This can best be achieved with good teamwork, in which all participants, feeling valued and appreciated, strive for their best results in harmony with their colleagues for the good of the enterprise – and of course themselves. Teamwork is vital to ensure that the enterprise runs at optimum levels, with all its parts functioning like a synchronized, well-oiled machine.
And in today’s highly competitive corporate world, successful teamwork translates into better, more enjoyable working conditions along with the additional benefits of progress, advancement, achievement, and, yes, even monetary rewards along the way.įor the company or organization, there is a lasting effect way beyond the fun and enjoyment. Well, that’s exactly what it’s STILL all about – teamwork.
Just remember back to your days as a kid, with your team of best buddies racing against the other guys for that coveted trophy. Not that fun and excitement aren’t still part of what it’s all about, but there can be real-life benefits evolving from scavenger hunts for both teams and organizers. Today, as an adult, you can still enjoy a scavenger hunt, but with a slightly different objective in mind. They have been since we were kids, searching through the briars and the brambles for those elusive goodies and prizes.
