Recently, Xiamen Shi Ge Yan Research Institute organized a special team-building activity – a series of interesting games including seaside barbecue and crab catching at the beautiful coast. Through this team activity, it enhanced communication and cooperation among employees, further boosting team cohesion.
The event was held at the picturesque seaside of Xiamen. Caressed by the sea breeze, employees enjoyed the fun of delicious food and games. They not only relaxed physically and mentally but also deepened their understanding of each other in a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere, laying a more solid team foundation for future work.
Since its establishment, Xiamen Shi Ge Yan Research Institute has always adhered to the corporate culture concept of "Innovation, Collaboration, Responsibility, and Excellence". The institute is well aware that in the rapidly developing technology field, a strong spirit of teamwork is the key to driving innovation and efficient execution. Therefore, the company organizes a series of team-building activities every year, aiming to enhance employee cohesion, stimulate the spirit of innovation, and improve work efficiency.
Team activities are not only an opportunity for relaxation and entertainment but also a practical platform to enhance employees' collaboration abilities, communication skills, and leadership. Especially in the high-tech industry, the tacit understanding and communication skills among team members often directly affect the progress and quality of projects. By organizing team-building activities, the company hopes to deepen the understanding between employees and promote cross-departmental collaboration and communication through a relaxed atmosphere.
The main objective of this seaside team-building activity is to help employees relax physically and mentally and strengthen the spirit of teamwork through a series of interactive games and nature-engaging activities. Through joint efforts and pleasant interactions, employees can deepen their recognition of the corporate culture while improving their problem-solving abilities and communication skills.
On the day of the activity, all employees of Xiamen Shi Ge Yan Research Institute set off from the company to the seaside resort. The entire activity was rich and varied, ranging from a barbecue party to seaside games, and then to the interesting challenge of crab catching. Each activity focused on the combination of team collaboration and individual performance.
The first part of the activity was the seaside barbecue. Everyone gathered around the barbecue grills and divided the work collaboratively – some were responsible for grilling skewers and vegetables, while others prepared seasonings and drinks. Although everyone had different responsibilities, each person actively participated and cooperated with one another, creating a warm and dynamic atmosphere.
The barbecue was not only a feast for the taste buds but also allowed everyone to take a moment of relaxation from their busy work. While enjoying the delicious food, everyone talked about their lives and work, deepening their understanding and friendship with each other. Through this barbecue, everyone was not only satisfied physically but also felt the intimacy and trust among colleagues mentally.
Next, the activity moved on to the crab-catching session. Employees were divided into several groups and went to the beach to look for crabs. Although crab catching seemed simple, it required certain skills and patience. During this process, team members needed to cooperate with each other and divide tasks properly to efficiently find crabs and catch them in the designated area.
Through the crab-catching activity, everyone not only exercised their reaction abilities and team collaboration skills but also strengthened mutual tacit understanding and trust. Although the process was full of challenges, it was also full of fun. Everyone spent a pleasant time amid laughter.
After the crab-catching activity, the research institute also prepared a series of challenging team games for the employees, such as relay races and trust falls. These games were designed with different team collaboration segments, which could not only exercise the employees' physical strength and reaction abilities but also test their team collaboration skills.
For example, the relay race required team members to complete a series of tasks within a specified time. Team members needed to cooperate closely and support each other to win the game. These activities not only stimulated the employees' sense of competition but also allowed them to experience the joy of team collaboration in the tense work atmosphere.
After the scheduled activities, employees could choose their own leisure time – some chose to take a walk by the sea, while others opted to sunbathe on the beach. In this relaxing environment, everyone not only enjoyed the gifts of nature but also further strengthened the bonds between team members.
In this free and relaxed atmosphere, employees had no work pressure and could fully enjoy the time spent with colleagues. Whether sharing personal interests with colleagues or talking about work experiences, it brought everyone closer together, and the barriers and communication obstacles in work were invisibly broken down.
After the activity, many employees said that this team-building activity not only brought them joy but also deepened their relationships with colleagues. One employee said, "This activity was amazing! The barbecue, crab catching, and games – every part was full of fun. More importantly, through these activities, the cohesion and collaboration ability of our team have been greatly improved." Another employee also stated, "Usually, work is so busy that we have no time to relax. Today's team-building activity made me feel very relaxed and happy, and my relationship with colleagues has become more harmonious."
In addition, many employees mentioned that through this relaxed way, they gained a deeper understanding and recognition of the company's culture. Everyone is not just colleagues but also friends. This kind of activity has strengthened employees' sense of belonging to the enterprise and filled them with confidence and motivation for future work.
