For many years, at the Rafting Center Drina Tara, we have been welcoming companies that want to organize rafting on the Tara River for their employees. Accommodation awaits them in lovely mountain-style wooden bungalows in a camp on the river bank. A restaurant that can host up to 400 people is at their service, as well as an open terrace under a clear sky, plenty of delicious homemade food, interesting games, and activities, and a hall for meetings, conferences, and presentations that covers 200m2
Let us present to you what it looks like when company employees come rafting on the Tara as part of a team-building activity. We will explain all the advantages and benefits that the company and employees have from this kind of shared active vacation and list all the reasons why this type of fun and team building is a great idea for both small and large companies. Let's take a look at why and how these recreational activities and authentic experiences could be fun, exciting, and beneficial for your team.
What is team building for and what are its advantages?
The benefits of team building were discovered by companies in the USA several decades ago. The purpose of team building is for the team within a company to connect, get to know each other, develop certain skills and competencies, build trust and communicate better both among themselves and with other teams. There is no respectable company that does not organize this type of activity for its employees, so team building has become popular in our area as well. Companies organize quizzes, karaoke, weekend stays in nature, playing games, etc. for their employees from time to time. Orienteering, treasure hunting, mountaineering, paintball, archery, bowling, interactive workshops, and familiarization exercises are just some of the disciplines for team building and team bonding. The point of this shared experience is better motivation for the mutual satisfaction of the company and the employees.
The idea behind team building: how will rafting on the Tara connect and strengthen the team?
Many companies have been convinced that this recreational activity is not only a fun adventure but also has a deeper purpose. They witnessed that both the employees and the company itself benefit from this kind of stay in nature with organized outdoor activities.
