<\/figure>\n\n\n\nSuccess Comes After Failure<\/h2>\n\n\n\nThe Importance of Facilitation for Corporate Training<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Once there was a multinational accountant firm who came to the escape game for corporate training and required bilingual training, so I personally followed up their case. That\u2019s why it\u2019s important to have a facilitator to oversee the event to solve any disputes. As a corporate trainer, I will try to look at the whole event and the whole team to find out if there is a communication problem. There are countless explanations for potential problems. The role of a corporate trainer is like a traffic light at a busy intersection with vehicles coming from all directions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ice-Breaking Games for Team Building<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Generally speaking, I would choose to do a simple ice-breaking game to help familiarize the participants with each other, and then brief them on the safety precautions for the escape game, rules of the game, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Team Roles and Strategies in Escape Games<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
The whole event is divided into two sections, each game session is 45 minutes. In the first game, I let them play freely and let them talk about some strategies and methods. In the second session of the game, I will ask them to choose a \u201cleader\u201d to coordinate the entire team; and a \u201ctime-keeper\u201d responsible for time management. Last, there will be assigned a \u201ccommunication expert\u201d for prompting. These roles can be exchanged anytime, but it needs to be for a good reason. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Lesson of Trial and Error<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
One important lesson for them to learn is the lesson of \u201ctrial and error.\u201d Normally, in their line of work mistakes are not allowed, but in this carefree environment it\u2019s important to let them know that making a mistake is no problem at all and that not everyone will always know everything. By making a mistake you can learn how to do it correctly and avoid making similar mistakes again in the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Identifying Communication Problems in Corporate Teams<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Many people usually have \u201cillusory superiority\u201d which is a type of bias where an individual thinks they are better than they actually are. This can be commonly seen when groups of people confidently go inside the games and try to solve the puzzles, but when they do not understand how the puzzles are solved they usually blame it on other factors and not their own problem solving abilities. As a corporate trainer, I will try to look at the whole event and the whole team to find out if there is a communication problem. Is it a problem of expressiveness? Too much contention? Is it a time management issue? Is nobody taking responsibility? Are they being too shy? Is someone being over confrontational? Are there freeriders? Did you not make good use of everyone\u2019s strengths?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In conclusion, corporate team building activities such as escape games can be a fun and effective way to improve communication and problem-solving skills within a team. With the help of a trained facilitator, participants can learn important lessons about trial and error, communication, and teamwork. By assigning specific roles within the team, individuals can learn to work together towards a common goal and overcome challenges that they may not have been able to on their own. Ultimately, the success of any team building activity depends on the willingness of participants to learn and grow together, and the guidance of a skilled facilitator to help them navigate any obstacles along the way. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
