Manchester United Display Exemplary Team Building

Friday, January 29th, 2010

The recent Carling Cup clash between Manchester Utd and Manchester City has yet again highlighted one of the most important aspects of success in sport; team building. Manchester City’s high profile signing, Carlos Tevez, supported hopes that City could achieve a result against their old rivals.

The 3-1 score line, however, told a different story. While City have plenty of money, many would say that the team lacks the team building ethos that United have had for many years. Rather than a team that relies on stars to achieve victory, Manchester United have always stressed the importance of team work as fundamental to their success.

This success in the world of sport correlates to success in business too; teams that exhibit solid, adaptable team working methods do well in business. At Accolade we understand this very well, which is why we’ve made it our business to develop team building techniques that really work. Our services are a unique blend of challenging exercises and good old fashioned fun – so that everyone in your team is encouraged to attempt and succeed in the team building events.

The end of the recession and the start to a positive workplace

Thursday, January 28th, 2010

We are officially emerging out of recession according to the country’s top economists.  That’s good welcome news but we all know that there is still some way to go before we are out of the woods and with this in mind it’s crucial that your company is underpinned by talented, utilised and motivated people working as a team.

With news being gloomy for so long, now is the time to harness the power of an encouraged economy and ensure your company is in tip top condition ready to win new business.  We all know that teams don’t just happen and with the previous climate it has been prime time for individuals to protect their jobs, proving their own individual worth which has resulted in fragmented teams.

We have a wide variety of team building activities that promote team collaboration, get people positively communicating and well on their way to working as a harmonious team once again.

If you would like further information then please give us a call today and we can discuss your companies different options.
