Here at Fairburn we differentiate between 'Team Gelling' and 'Team Building/ Staff Development'

Team Gelling Courses

These bonding exercises are run entirely in-house by our experienced instructors and involve a combination of outdoor activities and individual team challenges. Little or no time is spent inside discussing theoretical concepts or reviewing team performance. The emphasis is very much on fun, laughter and giving colleagues a shared experience to reflect on for months to come. In the evenings we can arrange a number of social events for you. Alternatively, we are happy to leave you alone to relax in the sauna, Jacuzzi baths, lounges and licensed dining room.
Typical outdoor instructor to client ratio is 1:8.

Team-building issues you may wish to explore:

  • team development
  • leadership
  • conflict resolution
  • planning and organisation
  • dealing with dysfunctional teams
  • good communication
  • creative problem solving
  • negotiating
  • reviewing
  • change management

Team Building / Staff Development Courses

These courses are tailored to your organisations particular needs.
It is often better to bring in a Management or Team Development Consultant to facilitate the learning outcomes during these courses. Extra benefit is often gained from the facilitator spending time in your organisation before and / or after the actual course. You may choose to use your own personnel staff, or alternatively we will be happy to recommend a suitable consultant. Time is split between indoor discussions and outdoor team challenges. Evenings can be left free for socialising or can be used to maximise discussion on more intensive courses.

  • Minimum facilitator to client ratio is 1:15
  • Recommended outdoor instructor to client ratio is 1:5
