The participants were composed of 37 members divided into 5 groups and were from Philfund's different branches: Cagayan de Oro, Surigao, Butuan, Valencia and Malaybalay.
Since this is the company's first time to have their team building facilitated by an organizer, all the activities were new to them. The company's main goal is to enhance communication, team work and fellowship within its employees but at the same time have fun and take a break from all in a day's work.
Planning the team building was short and there were change of plans along the way, but the team were able to pull it off and everyone had fun during the Amazing Race Activity.
The Green Team
The Red Team
The Yellow Team
The Orange Team
The Blue Team
The amazing race had 5 pitstops which put to test how each participant handle the task and most importantly how they relate to their team members during the activity. All the activities were carefully chosen as their actions would reflect on how they are at work.
We were happy to see how all the teams displayed communication and camaraderie during the race as well as we have seen individuals who stepped up to lead the team in order to achieve each task.
We could not forget the participant's faces and how exhausted they were every time they arrive at each pitstop but for the name of the game, we were surprised at how energetic and excited they were to read and perform each task given to them.
The participants also learned a lot during their processing as each marshall have provided their inputs on how the participants were during the game and the qualities they demonstrated during the race.
The Blue team garnered the highest score from the Amazing Race and everyone enjoyed the entire night during their fellowship.
At the end of the day, the participants were left with words of widsom - "Collaborate to Dominate".
Anything can be achieved as long as we have good communication and camaraderie within the team.
