Almost every corporate mission statement heralds it, CEOs search for it, yet most companies today seem to be missing the spark of creativity that is the foundation for growth and productivity. The ThinkWorkPlay TeamBuilding Experience offers business leaders an opportunity to bring their teams to an environment where creativity and teamwork will flourish. This workshop gives team members a new perspective from which to view themselves and their team.

“The Freeze-Framer software gives golfers the ability to identify when their heart is racing and do something about it. It gives them techniques to control themselves while under pressure and in tense situations so they can use those situations to their best advantage, both athletically and in life.”

ThinkWorkPlay TeamBuilding (CGTB)

The ThinkWorkPlay TeamBuilding ("CGTB") day is a program that uses golf as a tool for team building. This is not a traditional golf game, but a creative and highly experiential approach to golf that will challenge you to think more creatively. Our kickoff exercises and teambuilding program are centered around this focus, preparing you for a day of new perspectives and insights.

Our goal is to have your team think differently, work differently and play differently. All attendees have a common experience, even as they are broken down into smaller threesomes and foursomes playing the course. The exercise provides a common context for later discussion and learning.

Why The ThinkWorkPlay TeamBuilding Day?

The challenge many organizations face today when they are building and developing teams lies in the area of creating a foundation of trust among team members. The ThinkWorkPlay TeamBuilding day is a highly effective way to build and foster trust in the workplace. Placing individuals in an unfamiliar environment (even within the familiar space of a golf course) allows them to be vulnerable within a group, resulting in all areas of personal development and growth.

"What a great experience! It enhanced the bonds of an already close-knit team of co-workers, gave us all a new perspective on how to achieve to the limit of our individual and collective capacities, and improved our golf swings. What more could one want or expect?"

Paul Stock
Executive VP and Counsel
North Carolina Bankers Association

"2006 was a great year for us. The time we spent with you helped us visualize our direction and have the confidence to move forward. My leadership team delivered great results that enabled the department to meet some challenging goals. We even used the tools and skills you taught us to help us develop our 2007 business plan."

Unique Value

ThinkWorkPlay promotes the belief that team success can be enhanced by unlocking the power of creativity through a common experience of vulnerability. This experience creates trust, which, in turn, fosters creativity, collaboration and communication. This allows the team to focus on results. The ThinkWorkPlay TeamBuilding Experience provides common ground, knowledge and context that builds a strong team foundation and facilitates productive and collaborative interaction.

“ The group felt it was one of the best teambuilding sessions ever experienced.”
