"You've been marooned on an uninhabited island. Your tribe has nowhere
to go and there is no way off. Cell phones PDAs and pagers have been confiscated.
No cappuccinos, no sushi, no massages and no pampering. Nada. No one will even
hear you scream! Who will survive?"
Your team, we hope! In fact, ditto that the whole company Team
Events and Total Adventures has devised an all-new
set of team-building challenges based on the ultra popular "Survivor" series.
Lie any team-building initiatives, these test a group's ability to communicate
and collaborate. Teams get to choose from 12 different Survivor challenges
some stressing more physical endeavors others focusing more on brain power.
Various "adventures" may include an island exploration exercise
with GPS receivers and Polaroid cameras, a weapons challenge with blowguns,
crossbows, spears ad bola throwing; a mini-raft building and racing challenge
and tribal chant musical performances.
After the challenges
are complete "the tribal council" meets and the "tribes" perform
their mystical chant and cast their banishment votes. Survivors form alliances
along the way and tribes may partner with one another to outwit the competition.
The beauty of
the team-building package is that it can be done almost anywhere-from the
great outdoors to a hotel room.
Brought to the
New York Metro area this past June...the survivor team-building series has
already met with great success. Recent clients have included The Boston Consulting
Group, Morgan Lewis, and the First Union Bank.
