Although involving an element of fun, teambuilding provides a perfect break from an intensive meeting environment allowing the delegates some "time out" and to be faced with some challenging tasks where they can gain some serious learning points from "learning by doing".(see the "learning points" section below)

Each programme is facilitated by members of the hotel's management team and participants are encouraged to carry out a formal review after each task to evaluate the successes and carry forward any learning points to the next task that is set.

Tasks will dependent on the numbers of delegates involved and the weather conditions (ie. whether the activity needs to be carried out indoor or outdoor). Smaller teams of around 10 team members are quite often best, since this enables every individual to become involved in the task; hence for larger groups would be subdivided into different groups and dependent on the time available may carry out different tasks from other groups.
