Dynamic Duo of Bonding and Building.
Think about it like this, if you stop practising a musical instrument right after learning a new piece, your ability to play it well drops off fast. The same goes for picking up a new language – without regular practice, your new vocab and conversation skills start to fade away quickly.
It’s the same for a workshop where, for example, a new sales technique is taught. Without reinforcement, its details might blur as early as the next day. By incorporating an experiential team activity, we apply those sales techniques in a simulated environment, making the learning experience more vivid and the information more retainable.
Experiential activities also lower barriers to learning by offering diverse approaches that resonate with different learning styles. For example, while some team members may thrive in traditional classroom settings, others might struggle to engage without hands-on experiences.
Take for instance, a Sales Development Program blends itself perfectly with the ‘Bean Around the World’ program. One focuses on growing skills in effective prospecting and persuasive communication, and the latter, a coffee trading game, that not only energises your team but reinforces these concepts in a practical setting that mirrors the real-world challenges discussed in the program.
By incorporating an experiential activity, which involves dynamic role-playing, strategic decision-making, and interactive problem-solving, people are empowered to learn in ways that align with their individual preferences and strengths. This inclusivity enhances overall team comprehension and retention and fosters a collaborative environment where diverse perspectives are valued and leveraged.
