Team Challenge

WindyCity Fieldhouse presents highly engaging and entertaining events designed to enhance teamwork and communication, build relationships, improve group problem solving skills and develop strategic planning capabilities. You are guaranteed a fun and competitive event. The group that works most effectively as a team wins the competition.

While the day's activities will not require exertion, comfortable, casual attire is suggested. Thank you!

Team Challenge

The event begins after the group is broken into teams of approximately 10 to 15 people. Two teams compete head to head at each station with each team actively engaged at all times. Teams will rotate through these five activity areas.

  • Puzzling Planks: focus on teamwork and strategic planning
  • Tell Me a Story: effective listening, time management
  • Geometric Puzzler: group learning, team problem solving
  • Picture This: time management, communication
  • Pipeline Pass: teamwork, group learning

Deep Skills Debriefing Session

An experienced facilitator reviews, in detail, the business skills that made teams successful during the challenge. Examples of business situations are given to help participants understand the connection between the skills utilized in the activities and how they relate to their work environment. A ten to thirty minute discussion takes place to stress the importance of contiinually delveloping and utilizing these skills in the workplace
