Recently, our UNC team participated in a fun team-building activity at Bull City Escape Room in Durham, NC. We had 60 minutes to work together to find clues and solve puzzles, ultimately discovering the four-digit code required to escape the room. We managed to escape with 2 minutes left on the clock!

What is team building? Team building allows team members to effectively work together to complete a shared goal, task, or process. It helps to identify and celebrate strengths among team members and discover areas where the team can provide support to one another.

What are team building activities? Team building activities don’t have to be an escape room or a ropes course. They can be any activity that promotes collaboration and cooperation among the team.Some examples include a scavenger hunt, a trivia game or a volunteer activity.The lasting effects of these activities can aid in successful project completion and ongoing program development by translating these experiences into everyday work.
