Team trainings we usually organize in an outdoor setting. Very often we make use of the classical outdoor initiatives and games. We have permanently installed outdoor sites that we prefer to work at. In general, participants experience outdoor training as relaxed and entertaining. This enhances an open atmosphere in the group, and facilitates the learning process.

In an outdoor setting, the participants lose a lot of the anchors for their role behavior. Therefor they more easily show behavior and behavioral patterns that are unknown to their colleagues.
Next to that, the temperamental behavior will come forward more strongly. For a group that already exists for a longer period, an outdoor training will offer participants the possibility to see their colleagues exhibit new and different behavior. Behavior that can be referred to when the team is back at the workplace.

By offering a large diversity of exercises, the space is created in which either the chance for certain interactions is big, or where participants are seduced to show themselves. After every activity there is a debrief. This gives participants the opportunity to either connect what just happened to the theory that has been covered in an indoor session, or to work on their own frame of reference from their experience.
