Team-building goes virtual – bring your team together online!

With social distancing and travel restrictions becoming the new normal, more and more companies are working remotely, meaning team building and team bonding events have to take place online. Our events and activities give your remote team members a virtual environment to meet and bond in, using popular meeting apps like Zoom and Microsoft Teams.

Virtual Team Building Activities For Any Timescale & Team Size

All of our virtual team-building activities can be conducted in sessions of anywhere between an hour and half a day. The most popular session time for our virtual team-building games is around 2 hours, but we’re happy to tailor your event to any timeframe.

We recommend starting with online team ice-breakers and warm-up games, followed by the main event conducted in smaller groups in breakout rooms. This approach enables group sizes of anywhere from 5 to 500 people to take part in our virtual sessions.

The Main Event: Virtual Activities Tailored To Your Needs

If you’re planning a longer session, our wide range of online activities provides plenty of options for your main event. Our most popular longer games for online team-building activities are the Virtual Breakout Escape, Virtual Amazing Race and Virtual Treasure Hunt – although we offer many, many more exciting games and activities perfect for your virtual team-building session.

Our software developers can also customise these games to suit your individual needs – let us know what you’re looking for and we’ll work to implement your requirements in our games.

Online Warm-Ups & Ice-Breakers

A great way to start your online team learning session is with around 30 minutes of virtual warm-up games. These are fast-paced, lighthearted and fun activities designed with the features of Zoom and Microsoft Teams in mind. They can be conducted with a large group in a single online meeting room and are a great way to kickstart your virtual team-building session.

What Is Virtual Team Building?

Put simply, virtual team building is a version of team-building that takes place entirely online using virtual environments such as Zoom or Microsoft Teams meetings.

Like ordinary team building, virtual team building involves activities and games that help to develop teamwork, trust, and interpersonal dynamics within a team.

Virtual team building exercises can involve a wide variety of activities, such as quizzes, virtual escape rooms, team challenges, and more. Bringing your team together for these fun virtual events can help to develop stronger team relationships. As such, virtual team building can help to bridge the gap between virtual teams who might not have much opportunity to meet with other team members otherwise.

Why Do Organisations Do Virtual Team Building?

Given the drastic changes to working life caused by COVID-19, many organisations now work with remote or hybrid working models with virtual teams who aren’t always present on-site. As such, traditional team-building events are much harder to organise.

However, virtual team building allows organisations to host events to develop team relationships and keep remote teams engaged without needing to meet in person. Online games, activities and challenges give remote teams a chance to

spend time in a more social setting than their usual workday, forging closer team bonds and building a deeper sense of community.

As such, virtual team building provides organisations with a powerful way of bringing together their remote teams even when it’s not possible or practical for them to attend in-person events.

Why Is Virtual Team Building Important?

Virtual team building is important for a number of reasons, but perhaps the biggest one is that it helps create better team relationships and increase team cohesion. Giving your virtual teams a chance to interact, socialise and have fun outside of their ordinary work settings gives them a chance to connect as friends rather than just co-workers.In doing so, your team’s group dynamics will improve. Your remote team members will have a chance to get to know their colleagues, increasing trust within your team. Working together to solve puzzles and challenges will also enhance their ability to collaborate and work as a team, which translates into better teamwork in the workplace, too.

As well as enhancing team dynamics, virtual team building also helps to boost employee engagement. Breaking up your team’s usual work structure with a fun and memorable virtual team building activity gives them something new to look forward to – meaning that repeated virtual team-building events will keep them engaged in your organisation and team.

Virtual team building events are also a great way of thanking and rewarding your team for their hard work. Using fun virtual activities and games is a great way to help your team blow off some steam after a busy or stressful period for your organisation, and shows them that you appreciate all the effort that they put in.

Finally, virtual team building is a powerful way of combating loneliness. Remote and hybrid work models mean that remote teams don’t get as much chance to interact with each other as they would at the office, which can feel isolating if a team member doesn’t get a chance to talk to their colleagues outside of emails or work calls. As such, virtual team building gives remote teams a chance to get together and have some fun, staving off feelings of loneliness and isolation.

What Are The Benefits Of Virtual Team Building?

Virtual team building has a number of important benefits for your team and your organisation as a whole. As stated above, using virtual team building is important for building cohesion and stronger relationships within your team. Successfully doing so will convey a number of other benefits, including:

Improved Communication

Solving puzzles and challenges together helps your team to improve their communication skills and learn how to navigate conversations with each other more effectively. This translates into more effective communication in the workplace.

Increased Productivity

By helping virtual team members to become more comfortable talking to one another, virtual team building means that your team will be more likely to share problems and concerns with each other. This means potential issues will be addressed sooner, enhancing productivity.

Encourage Creativity

Virtual team building activities encourage your team to think creatively and brainstorm ideas together to find solutions. This translates into more creative thinking at work, leading to new ideas and approaches to your team’s work

Better Collaboration

Bringing your team together through virtual team building will help them to develop collaborative skills, meaning they can work better together as a team in the workplace.

Virtual team building has a number of other benefits, too. It can be used as a great incentive to help encourage remote teams to meet important targets or deadlines. For example, if a big project needs to be completed by a certain date, you could promise a fun team building session as a reward if the team completes it successfully by the deadline.

Virtual team building can also double as a training session for particular skills or knowledge that you want your team to develop. Centring your virtual team building session on themes relating to these skills can help make training much more fun and engaging, meaning your team is likely to remember what they’ve learned and then apply it at work.

There are also mental health benefits to be gained from virtual team building. As discussed above, virtual team building can be a great way to combat loneliness; similarly, it can be a great way to reduce stress and bring more positivity into your team. Using a fun team building activity to give your team a fun break from work can relieve stress from deadlines and give your team a chance to take a breather from work to avoid burnout.

Finally, virtual team building offers several advantages compared to traditional in-person team-building events. First, it can be much more cost-efficient – you won’t need to hire a venue, drastically reducing costs. Virtual team building is also more versatile than ordinary team building, as the activities can easily be personalised to your organisation or the particular skills you want to focus on.

How Do You Make Virtual Team Meetings More Fun?

Virtual team-building exercises are a great way to make virtual meetings more fun and engaging.

For example, if you want to train your team in specific product knowledge or skills, a standard presentation won’t be particularly fun or engaging.

However, if you use a virtual game or activity such as a quiz, escape room or team challenge as part of the training instead, your team will be much more interested and gain far more from the experience.

Some examples of fun and engaging virtual team-building activities you can use to make meetings more fun include:

Virtual Murder Mystery

Have your team unravel an exciting murder mystery with clues and puzzles based around key skills and knowledge you want to train them in, at the same time as having fun and developing creative thinking.

Virtual Escape Room

Challenge your team to a race to escape a virtual escape room filled with puzzles and riddles while developing teamwork, trust, and communication skills.

Virtual Amazing Race

Explore interesting and exotic locations with a virtual race across the globe, using themed team challenges to improve creative thinking and problem-solving.

Virtual Treasure Hunt

Solve a treasure hunt using VR locations and a variety of cryptic clues, with teams competing against each other to find the treasure first – great for improving communication, time management, and creative thinking skills.

Virtual Gameshow

Split your team into smaller groups to compete in a fun gameshow, boosting team morale and engagement while testing essential knowledge.

All of these virtual team-building ideas provide fun and exciting ways to make virtual team meetings and training more engaging, ensuring that your team will participate enthusiastically to work together and develop their teamwork skills.

How Do You Boost Morale Virtually?

Virtual team building activities are a great way to boost your team’s morale. They can provide a fun and exciting break from the stress of ordinary work, allowing your team to blow off steam and socialise with each other in a more relaxed setting.

This helps to boost motivation and positivity within your team, giving them a powerful morale boost.

Organising a fun virtual event for your team also shows them that you care about them and want to reward their hard work. Feeling valued by managers and bosses is a powerful factor in maintaining positive morale at work, so virtual activities are a great way to keep your team feeling both valued and engaged with their work.

How Do I Get Started With Virtual Team Building?

If you want to organise your own virtual team-building challenges, your first step is to think about your requirements for the event and plan accordingly. How many people will be involved? Do you want to run the event for your entire team or break your team down into smaller groups? How long do you want the event to last? These are all important questions to ask.

You should also think about your specific aims for the virtual team-building event. Are there any particular skills you’d like the event to focus on? Will your virtual team-building exercise incorporate other training, or is it intended as a fun reward for your team’s hard work? Being clear about what you want to achieve with your virtual team-building will help you to make it a success.

Next, you need to find a professional and experienced virtual team building service to help you plan, organise and host your event. With an extensive range of virtual activities and dedicated, professional logistics and facilitator teams, Making Teams is an excellent option to help you pull off the perfect virtual event
Making Teams can provide you with custom software for your virtual team-building event, tailored to your organisation and the aims of your event.
