Team based problem solving is one of the most important team building exercises, regardless of whether your team is small or large! One of my favourite ways to increase team performance is to do what I term “acute capacity challenges“. These have the effect of forcing the team to work together for a short period to accomplish stretch goals. This allows you to build capacity and team performance without a large time commitment – it’s also a bit of fun for your employees!
