Creative Impact Group Special Events Planning

Team building is critical to todays business environment. Cooperation and communication are the fruits of good team building, and are also necessary in today’s workplace.

Here are six team building activities and tips on how to implement them.

1. Custom Murder Mystery - While many companies offer stock murder mysteries, Creative Impact Group creates custom mysteries which are specifically written for your group and location. In this way, information specific to your company can be woven into the plot. Professional actors are used as characters so that the guests can enjoy themselves and get involved at their own pace. Group Interaction builds as teams try to solve the mystery and attempt to win the “Super Sleuth” prize.
2. Stock Market Fever - Stock Market Fever is a new team building activity that provides plenty of interaction and requires quick decisions. We provide the tickers, TV monitors, stock quotations, bell tolls, trading pits, investors, alert and trading coupons. We provide a computer network and proprietary software to link a number of trading pits to which players/investors rush to sell, buy, or short-sell stocks from thirty fictitious companies. The stock prices are constantly updated and fluctuate according to the financial news broadcast on a closed circuit news wire…just like the real thing, including alarms that go off when really important news breaks! Not to mention rumors and hot tips that keeps the frenzy at it’s peak.
3. Scavenger Hunts - Scavenger Hunts are ideal for meetings which take place at resorts and conference centers. Scavenger Hunts allow the group to work together at teams. Our Scavenger Hunts are custom scripted for your group and location. The group is divided up into teams. Each team is given riddled clues followed by further instructions. Sometimes they only need to identify an object, or they may have to return with a specific item before getting their next clue. While the hunts are tied to the location, they can also be coordinated with the theme of the meeting. Clues can also lead the team to items which are used in the business - whether that would be a hard hat, an instruction manua, or a head set. We have staged Scavenger Hunts at company owned resorts, conference centers, and even at suburban shopping malls. The excitement is contagious as the teams try to outdo each other as quickly as they can.
4. Game Shows - Creative Impact Group has a number of Game Show options that can tie in to your function. Many are based on popular television game shows. Some involve questions which challenge the brain while others involve physical activities. The games involving physical exertion such as Power Pitch Baseball or Super Shot Golf are viable alternatives when the facilities or weather do not lend themselves to outdoor activities. Games involving trivia or other kinds of information can be customized for your business. Important points can be stressed in an entertaining way by making it part of a game. For example, selling points of a new product can be incorporated into a multiple choice trivia question.
5. Custom Improvisational Comedy - Improvisational comedy will convey information to your meeting attendees, encourage verbal interaction, and reinforce the spirit of teamwork. Improvisational comedy consists of a series of humorous scenes focusing on topics based on your input. These scenes are performed by professional actors. They can be used in between speakers at your meeting or as a set program in any one part of your meeting. If time permits, your own attendees can participate in the improvisational comedy. Our talented staff of writers will provide you with parodies, custom characters, and scenarios. Your attendees will easily relate to such scenarios as “A Day in The Life of A Corporate Salesman”.
6. Corporate Olympic Games and Obstacle Courses - Our Corporate Olympics can be as difficult of as easy as you choose - your preference. A great team builder. Creative Impact Group will provide you with an olympic-style sporting event complete with an Olympic coach to run the event. These games are designed to suit your needs and budget. They all feature team competition.

Creative Impact Group has the experience and resources to make your next event a success.
