Are you searching for a guide that takes a step-by-step approach to planning a team building event, offering insightful strategies and practical tools that are actually helpful?

Often we hear from customers who have signed up for an Urban Challenger team experience as part of their team building bonanza, who are not event planners or HR professionals but were tasked with planning a team event. Knowing full well that satisfying a group of people–small or large–is a momentous challenge, the anxiety of doing the “right” thing that everyone will like (or at the very least, not hate) or messing something up can be over the roof.

So, we’ve decided to share our long years of experience in planning, running (and attending) team building events in a free-for-all ‘How to Plan Your Next Team Building Event’ guide.

What should you do first, set a budget or pick a date, run an indoor or an outdoor event, how to get your team involved in making decisions, will keeping the cost low by doing it online going to be less efficient, are just some of the questions we share our takes on.
