How to start the planning process for your team building day in adelaide
Of course GoBananas are here to actually organise the event you and and do all the hard work, but before we start it definitely helps if you have an idea of the direction you want to go in. As a boss, you need to decide what you need your staff to achieve in order for them to help your company reach it goals. Is it building morale? Comminication? Overcoming office conflict? Once that's decided, then you can move forward with the team building day and have a good idea of the sort of event you need to book.
what do you need to do before you come to us?
- Have a rough estimate of the number of people in attendence - when it comes to team building activities, a lot of events might require minmum numbers to go ahead, so its helps if you know your group size early on so we know which options we can look at straight away.
- Know your budget - while GoBananas does offer a wide range of activities to suit most budgets, it's definitely a big help if you have an estimate of how much you're allowed to spend. This is especially important for large companies that need things to be approved by and accounts team before going ahead. If we know the limit then we can move along with the planning process more quickly by taking out the options that we know wont be suitable.
- Allow plenty of time to get things sorted - last minute bookings are possible, but when it comes to planning a big team building day in Adelaide the more time you have - the better. Especially if you're planning your event around June/July or Xmas time - these are really busy times of the year for staff days out so we recommend you start the planning process at least 2-3 months prior. This way you're more likely to get the activity you want and on the date/time that you want it.
- Be willing to be flexible - when it comes to planning a team building event there is nothing to be gained by micro-managing your party rep. The reason you've come to events planning companu is so you don't have to do all the hard work yourseld. Trust your party rep to get it sorted and then you can just sit back, relax and then reap the praise once the day is a major success.
