Lead, Follow or Get Out of the Way

As in any business, being innovative is one of the keys to success. It is no different in the team building business. When we first started offering team building I often had an argument with my program designer about new programs and how and if we should do programs that other team building companies were doing. It went something like this:

Program designer: “I only want to offer original programs that nobody else offers. That will be the key to our success, showcasing the power of play through unique, original, innovative games. “

Me: “ I agree, we should offer unique, innovative, and original programs that nobody else offers but clients also want programs that they have seen and heard about and others in their company have done. Once they trust us on things that they know, they will trust us to try programs that they haven’t heard of or done.”

That pretty much was how Teambonding started, a combination of original, innovative, unique team building programs like our Spy School (now School for Spies) and the $1Million Wheel of Jeopardy Feud and the program that ended the last day it was facilitated on 9/11 about diffusing a bomb. We also had scavenger hunts and team building murder mysteries and it happened just like I thought it would, clients tried us first for things that they were familiar with and then tried our unique programs and a team building company was born.

Flash forward to now, Teambonding is still leading the way with innovative new programs like our Smartphone Scaventure, Flash Teams, Cocktail Team Building with Flair and our newest philanthropic programs, Canned Good. Clients continue to respond well and Teambonding continues to lead.
