No one felt silly and singled out. In terms of getting a diverse group of people to interact, I can’t think of anything better. The staff were excellent. They were helpful, witty and inclusive. I am happy to wholeheartedly recommend this activity to any other group within the firm thinking about a team building exercise. I’d be happy to speak to anyone first hand with my recommendation and endorsement.”

Teambonding’s School for Spies event is our enhanced, totally up-to-date evolution of our original “Spy” program. This hilarious new version features more spies, super high-quality production values, plus improved spy exercises with the kind of innovations you’ve come to expect from Teambonding upgrades.

The nation’s most prestigious espionage training academy, the School for Spies, is about to hold its annual graduation. Everyone attending has invested years of grueling effort to become part of the elite group that gets all the glamorous assignments. These lucky few are also the spies who get all the cool new gadgets.

The problem is, there’s only room at the top for a few outstanding spies. So think of this as your final exam – the chance to prove once and for all who really deserves those international assignments, flying cars and big expense accounts..

Your group is divided into teams representing high-level intelligence organizations from around the world. Each team is armed with a briefing package including coded messages, top-secret passwords, audio tapes, electronic bugging devices and things too highly classified to mention here. Participants must break codes, follow clues, and retrieve sensitive information, all while pushing their mental acuity (and their scruples) to the limit. Some challenges require stealth and cunning. Others call on creativity and imagination. At least one features guns loaded with genuine rubber suction darts. Almost all require that you leave honesty and integrity at home.

We know of no better way to help your team get to know one another. This event is a wildly exciting step away from the day-to-day routine, and always filled with surprises. It’s also really effective at pushing out-of-the-box thinking. Let’s face it, success as a high level international spy these days requires a lot of right-brain ingenuity.

School for Spies is a perfect way to become more effective at prioritization and activate effective time management techniques. This is a wildly exciting step away from the day-to-day routine, and always filled with hilarious surprises. This event is also really effective at pushing out-of-the-box thinking – let’s face it, success as a high level international spy these days requires a lot of right-brain ingenuity.

There’s a reason TeamBonding is widely acknowledged as the absolute leader in corporate team building (lots of reasons, really). After just one School for Spies encounter, you’ll see for yourself why we’re considered the best at what we do.

How did we create the world’s most popular team building event?

Every spy has a story and this is ours. Back in 1998, TeamBonding introduced Spy School, a radically innovative concept in corporate team building. In almost no time, the event became wildly popular. We found ourselves staging programs throughout the U.S., as well as in Europe, Australia and Canada.

Our client list soon grew to include the U.S. military, along with several real U.S. government intelligence agencies including the National Defense University – real spies. We admit it – we were shocked too. Insurance companies wanted in. Credit card companies. Defense contractors.

In late 2004, our writer left and while he created the original program, we’re happy to report that in true TeamBonding fashion, we have continued to grow, enhance, and fine-tune this highly effective concept. As a result, today’s School for Spies client roster includes the National Reconnaissance Office, Goldman Sachs, Verizon, ThermoFisher and dozens of other teams representing many of the world’s largest and most successful companies.
