The Best Team Building Quiz Tools

Best Team Building Activities For Sales Teams
Let’s be honest. Your sales team is probably the most competitive, high-energy, and sometimes caffeine-depleted group in your entire organization. They live for the win, the “closed-won” notification, and the thrill of the chase. But that high-stakes environment comes with a side effect. It can lead to burnout and a “lone wolf” mentality that can actually hinder your long-term growth. When most leaders think of team building for sales teams,…
How to Do Team Building Without Anyone Knowing You’re Doing Team Building
Let’s be real for a second: team building is the thing everybody loves to hate. Even though I’m a professional facilitator, I totally get it. The phrase often conjures images of forced laughter and awkward icebreakers that make people want to run for the exit. It either intimidates, alienates, or bores people. But here’s the secret: a work group that acquires shared trust will perform better, so working on those…

They are everywhere. And naturally, they’ve made their way onto the corporate agenda. So, are escape rooms good for team building? The short answer is: Yes, they absolutely can be. But (and you knew there…
What does success look like after incorporating AI into your business
It seems that everywhere you turn these days, someone is discussing AI. It’s in the news, it’s in our inboxes, and it’s definitely the topic of conversation at the coffee machine. It reminds me a bit of when synthesizers and drum machines first gained popularity in the music scene. There was a lot of excitement, but also a fair bit of nervousness. Would the machines replace the musicians? Would the…
How to Facilitate Team Building Activities
Let’s face it. Standing in front of a group of people and asking them to participate in a team building activity can be daunting. I’ve been on stage my whole life, but I still remember the first time I had to lead a group rather than just perform for them. It’s a different beast entirely. You look out at the room and see a mix of expressions. Some people are…
How To Humanize AI
I recently read an article about the explosion of Artificial Intelligence in the business world. It made me realize that while everyone is rushing to use these new tools, many are forgetting the most essential part of the equation: the human being. We are living in a world where algorithms can write emails, draft reports, and even compose melodies. But if you’ve ever listened to a song played entirely by…
Why Try Team Building Through Song?
Each of us can sing the lyrics to dozens of songs, but on any given day we can’t remember where we left our car keys! Songs have lasting impact that stay with us.
Everyone can name songs that they associate with life experience; falling in love, that first break up, or a memorable road trip. Through our team building activities, your organization will create its own special songs. Songs that will set you apart and create deeper meaning for your culture and your workforce.
Team Building Activities That Work For You
Driven by the passion of our award winning hit songwriter-facilitators, we’ve become the leader in interactive music team building events. Organizations ranging from Salesforce, Apple, Pfizer and Unilever plus many non-profits and associations come to us when they want that special event; that certain something that brings a group to the next level.
- You don’t have to be a singer – In fact, our clients tell us they’re amazed by the high level of buy-in and engagement we get. We don’t pull you in – we draw you in; through conversation, by being real and by creating an accessible experience that’s so far from scary it’s quite comfortable.
- From 5 to 5,000 participants – We’ve found a way to bring our musical programs to groups of all sizes. During the past decade clients have engaged with us to create multiple variations of our programs that fit different needs. A small group music video day – we’ve done that. A large conference songwriting extravaganza in Las Vegas – we’ve done that too. With music team as our foundation, we’re masters of variation.
- From thirty minutes to full day events – We’ll work with your agenda to bring value that matches your goals.
- Memorable experience with powerful take-aways – Create the soundtrack to your corporate life as you craft original songs that communicate the best of who you are and what you do.
This Is Music, This Is Fun
Team building activities aren’t always fun. In fact, sometimes they’re downright awful. And yet here you are, trying to find something real, accessible and fun for your entire organization. Our programs work for several reasons.
- We’re really good at this – Our team is not only talented and entertaining, we’re adept at leading groups from point A to Z seamlessly. We won’t embarrass you or put you on the spot. In fact, we begin with conversation that’s comfortable and relevant as we move from lyric brainstorm to songwriting and performance. By the time your songs are complete, everyone will be singing along and proud of it.
- Relatable – Music really is a universal language. Even if you can’t carry a tune, songs are an important part of your life and of your colleague’s lives. We help you tap into your universal language to communicate, build relationships and have some genuine fun.
- We’re Not Faking It – We’ve created music for artists ranging from Keith Urban, Blake Shelton, Stevie Wonder, Faith Hill, Kesha, Kelly Clarkson and more. But honestly, we’re just as engaged when we’re writing songs with you. That’s because the creative process is always immediate. We’re co-creating with you and your team as we move from blank canvases to your finished masterpieces. We have to be in it and on our toes because we never know just what’s going to happen during the creative process. We do know that together we’ll all make beautiful music.
