Team building

A day out for Genesis Energy team members at Waiwhakareke

These days lots of organisations are interested in taking a day out of the office for team building - giving their staff the opportunity to work with their workmates on something completely different in a setting completely removed from their everyday work environment. And Waiwhakareke is the perfect choice - offering you an event that can be organised to meet your individual needs and which also gives back to the community and the environment.

The natural environment offers good opportunities for team-building events, which can be either informal days doing practical conservation work or more focused with initiative activities based around the building blocks of a team or other team or management models.

Waiwhakareke can provide a wide range of opportunities for people to become involved in the environment as a team activity.

Practical teamwork events

Environmental improvements can be implemented quite quickly and even a few hours work can show a marked improvement to the appearance of the work site giving satisfaction to those involved. Team activities can be organised for any number of people and any level of physical ability. Examples of possible activities include:

• A community tree planting event

• Laying of paths

• Special building projects

• Work on plant propagation at our tree nursery

Team-building events with a training input

More formal events with training input built around the different aspect of group dynamics, leadership or teamwork can also be provided. Practical activities can include either environmental work and initiative exercises in an outdoor setting. Green Team Building can be organised to suit any ability.
