Fun that helps. Why is CSR the future of team building?

Imagine two scenes. Scene one: A classic team-building event. A group of employees enthusiastically tries to shoot each other with paintballs. Some are having a great time, while others stand aside, waiting for the barbecue. The atmosphere is... okay. Scene two: The same group, but in different circumstances. Together, they are renovating a playground for a local orphanage. There's dust, sweat, and paint stains, but above all – genuine cooperation, laughter, and a sense that they're doing something important. Which picture strengthens the team more? Over the years, team building has been mainly associated with competition and entertainment. However, today more and more conscious companies are discovering that the strongest bonds are not formed during fun, but through working together towards a worthy cause. This is the essence of CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility) integration.

Kick-off meeting that doesn't put you to sleep. How to recharge the team's batteries?

January. The grey aura outside the window, the drop in energy after the holiday break, and... an invitation to an all-day conference summarizing the year. Most employees at the mere thought of the "Kick-off meeting" envision a dark room, hundreds of PowerPoint slides, and a monologue by the CEO that lasts an hour too long. The result? Instead of motivation and eagerness to strive for new goals, the team leaves tired and overstimulated. Yet, the opening of the year (Kick-off) is the most important moment in the company's calendar. It's like the starter's gun in a race. If the start is sluggish, it's hard to expect the team to reach the finish line with a record result. So how do you turn a boring meeting into an energetic event?
