Team building: It is a very common term that is often discussed in many organizations today as a means of trying to get employees to accomplish common goals.  Although the term itself may have developed a more negative meaning over recent years, Forbes Magazine says, “Team building is the most important investment you can make for your people.  It builds trust, mitigates conflict, encourages communication, and increases collaboration.”  In order for this to happen, you have to be innovative when coming up with team building activities.  Try to think past the often used group picnic idea, and implement team building practices that will allow employees and coworkers to use their strengths to bring better, long-term value to your business as a whole.
