Have you noticed? With the passage of time, the actual effect of team building activities gradually weakens, and it is difficult to unite the strength of the team. For newly hired employees, team building not only allows them to understand the team culture, but also allows them to move forward on the same path as the company. For the team building of old employees, it is not so good.
As a manager, you must be aware that the organization of team building activities has a crucial impact on its effectiveness. If the organizer has improper arrangements for the event, personnel coordination, time arrangement, etc., it will lead to problems such as unsmooth progress and poor results. For example, the schedule of activities is too tight, causing members to be fatigued; Unreasonable time arrangement, resulting in conflicts between activities and work or life, etc. These problems will not only affect the smooth running of the event, but also affect the mood and attitude of team members, which is not conducive to cohesion.
In addition, the purpose of many team building in reality is not so clear, to put it bluntly, it is "team building for the sake of team building", which lacks practical meaning and value. For example, the team building I participated in recently has no in-depth theme and meaning, which is difficult to touch the hearts of team members, and what I do is like going through the motions, and it is even more difficult to achieve the effect of cohesion.
Because of this, many key team members lose interest in participating, and most of them are reluctant to participate in team building activities, or only participate in the form, and cannot really participate in the activities. There are also some people who are not good at communication and interaction by nature, and it happens that team building is the best opportunity to exercise and improve, boring team building, purposeless team building, just like two strangers communicating in the same house, chatting, and nothing to say, not chatting, and extremely embarrassing. In this way, it is difficult to understand each other deeply, let alone form common goals and values. On the contrary, it may lead to misunderstandings and conflicts between members, and it will not play a role in improving the cohesion of the team.
In the final analysis, team building is to introduce the company's high-quality author list goals into the personal goals of employees, and the two are on the same track and in the same direction, so as to gather combat effectiveness. Therefore, it is necessary to inherit and carry forward the excellent team culture. If the team culture lacks positive values and the pursuit of common goals, then it is difficult for team building activities to play a cohesive role. For example, there are problems such as power struggles and conflicts of interest in the team, which will lead to the exacerbation of conflicts and disagreements between members, which is not conducive to the cohesion of the team. In this case, team building activities not only do not solve the problem, but may exacerbate the conflict and play the opposite role.
To sum up, the problem of difficulty in gathering strength in team building activities involves many aspects, and in order to improve the actual effect of team building activities, it is necessary to clarify the purpose and significance of the activities; increase team member engagement; enhance effective communication and interaction; Reasonable arrangement of activity organization; and building a positive and healthy team culture. Only when these aspects are effectively solved can the team building activities truly play a role in cohesion.
