More than four in 10 (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/ca\/form\/conf\/2021-small-business-trends-report\/\">43 per cent<\/a>) SMBs surveyed in Salesforce\u2019s Small and Medium Business Trends Report offer remote or hybrid work \u2014 and plan to do so for the long term. <\/p>\n<p>Flexible working arrangements offer big benefits. Companies can lower their facility costs, and employees may be able to achieve a greater work-life balance. But remote and hybrid work can make it more challenging to build close-knit teams, especially as new hires join your company.<\/p>\n<p>Managing hybrid employees may require a fresh mindset and new skills. Here\u2019s how to choose the right team-building technique for your hybrid or virtual team. <\/p>\n<h1><b>Team Building in a Hybrid Work World<\/b><\/h1>\n<p>Team building may feel like one of your greatest challenges, even if you excel at bringing teams together in person. Simple questions like timing team-building activities or deciding how often to meet require extra consideration. Keep these factors in mind as you weigh your options.<\/p>\n<p><b>Scheduling:<\/b> Plan team-building events during work hours \u2014 and adjust your team\u2019s workload accordingly. If your team straddles time zones and it\u2019s not possible for everyone to participate at the same time, choose asynchronous activities.<\/p>\n<p><b>Team size:<\/b> A team of five will have different needs than a team of 50, so adjust your team-building activities accordingly. Some activities work best with small groups, so consider breaking your reports into smaller, competitive teams \u2014 or choose an activity that\u2019s suited to large groups.<\/p>\n<p><b>Personality types:<\/b> Hybrid work challenges employees in different ways. Introverts may feel more drained after team building while extroverts may crave more activities. If you\u2019re not sure about your team members\u2019 personality types, ask during your one-to-one meetings. Then scale events up or down to suit your team \u2014 or be flexible about participation for mixed teams.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2023\/10\/620Team20Building20Techniques20for20the20Hybrid20Work20Era2001.png?strip=all&#038;quality=95\" alt=\"\"><\/img><\/p>\n<h1><b>Setting Team Building Goals<\/b><\/h1>\n<p>As the hybrid work era becomes the new normal, it\u2019s the perfect time to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/ca\/blog\/2022\/03\/5-lessons-companies-can-learn-from-their-remote-working-experien.html\">re-evaluate your team-building<\/a> needs. Before creating a new team-building strategy, evaluate where your team is and what kind of team building would serve them best. Every team is different, so this step is important. Implementing the wrong strategy could drive away great employees or attract poor ones.<\/p>\n<h2><b>Team-building goals<\/b><\/h2>\n<p>Let\u2019s explore the goals you may want to achieve with team building, then we\u2019ll dig into some activity ideas. <\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2023\/10\/620Team20Building20Techniques20for20the20Hybrid20Work20Era2002.png?strip=all&#038;quality=95\" alt=\"\"><\/img><\/p>\n<p>Fostering communication: Out of the <a href=\"https:\/\/umatter.princeton.edu\/respect\/tools\/communication-styles\">four main communication styles<\/a>, assertive (but not aggressive) communication leads to respect and effective collaboration among teams. Activities that foster communication help your workers better understand how they interact without the pressure of a company project on the line.<\/p>\n<p>Bonding: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ualberta.ca\/human-resources-health-safety-environment\/managing\/health-and-wellness-administration\/creating-psychologically-safe-workplaces.html\">Psychological safety at work<\/a> can contribute to increased engagement, improved recruitment and retention, reduced absenteeism, and more. When <a href=\"https:\/\/rework.withgoogle.com\/print\/guides\/5721312655835136\/\">Google<\/a> researched what makes an effective team, they put psychological safety at the top of the list. Team building aimed at helping employees <a href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/blog\/smb-remote-teams-strong-relationships\/\">build strong personal relationships<\/a> with each other is a great way to build more psychological safety at work. <\/p>\n<p>Problem solving: You likely solve problems for your business and customers each day. But being able to solve problems as a team requires a different skillset than tackling them alone. Activities that involve working together to achieve a non-work-related goal can help employees learn how to tackle problems together. <\/p>\n<p>Sharing values: Nearly two-thirds (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.edelman.com\/trust\/2021-trust-barometer\/belief-driven-employee\/new-employee-employer-compact\">61 percent<\/a>) of job candidates choose their employer based on their own values and beliefs. That means jobseekers factor in a company\u2019s mission and values when weighing offers. Team-building activities are a great way to share your company\u2019s values and bring them into employees\u2019 everyday interactions and decisions.<\/p>\n<p>Building skills: Sometimes your employees need to cross train or diversify skillsets among the team to ensure flexibility and agility. Both teaching and learning from colleagues helps elevate the team as a whole and trains employees to lean on each other\u2019s expertise. <\/p>\n<h1><b>Team-Building Techniques for Hybrid Workers<\/b><\/h1>\n<p>Now that you understand goals for team building, it\u2019s time to plan team-building activities to achieve them. Here are five techniques that may help your team bond.<\/p>\n<h2><b>1. Virtual escape rooms <\/b><\/h2>\n<p><b>Goals: <\/b>Bonding, problem solving, building skills, fostering communication<\/p>\n<p><b>Scheduling:<\/b> Synchronous<\/p>\n<p><b>Team Size: <\/b>Small<\/p>\n<p><b>Personalities:<\/b> Extroverts<\/p>\n<p>Have you ever wanted to lock your team in a room until they learn how to cooperate? A virtual escape room sets up a scenario for your team and encourages them to work together to solve puzzles within a time limit. Escape rooms check a lot of team building boxes in a single afternoon. Plus, they&#8217;re fun! Worldwide, you can find more than <a href=\"https:\/\/www.buyescapegames.com\/escape-room-listings\/\">5,000 branded escape rooms<\/a>. While these escape rooms require in-person interaction, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.outbackteambuilding.com\/blog\/paid-and-free-virtual-escape-rooms\/\">virtual options<\/a> give your team the same benefits without anyone needing to hop on a plane. <\/p>\n<h2><b>2. Activity kits<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><b>Goals: <\/b>Bonding, sharing values, building skills<\/p>\n<p><b>Scheduling:<\/b> Synchronous<\/p>\n<p><b>Team Size: <\/b>Large or small<\/p>\n<p><b>Personalities: <\/b>Extroverts and introverts<\/p>\n<p>Sometimes, breaking through the virtual barrier with tactical activities can help teams bond, build skills, and share company values with tangible results. If you can mail packages to your direct reports, you can use activity kits to help your team get to know each other. Whether your team\u2019s into crafting, soap-making, house plants, or wine and cheese, you can <a href=\"https:\/\/snacknation.com\/blog\/team-building-kits\/\">find a kit<\/a> that reflects your corporate values and brings everyone together \u2014 and you may even be able to help your team build some new skills. <\/p>\n<h2><b>3. Personality quizzes<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><b>Goals: <\/b>Bonding, fostering communication<\/p>\n<p><b>Scheduling:<\/b> Synchronous or asynchronous<\/p>\n<p><b>Team Size:<\/b> Large or small<\/p>\n<p><b>Personalities:<\/b> Extroverts and introverts<\/p>\n<p>Most people enjoy learning about themselves. Sharing those learnings can be a great way for employees to get to know each other, understand varied perspectives, and tailor their communication styles with different people. <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.myersbriggs.org\/my-mbti-personality-type\/mbti-basics\/\">Myers Briggs<\/a> is a classic test, while <a href=\"https:\/\/my-personality-test.com\/\">My Personality Test<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.personalitydata.org\/enneagram\/free-enneagram-test\">Enneagram<\/a> are also great choices. Help your team learn about their varied <a href=\"https:\/\/www.workstyle.io\/\">work styles<\/a>, or just have some fun with the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wizardingworld.com\/news\/discover-your-hogwarts-house-on-wizarding-world\">Harry Potter Sorting Hat<\/a>. Whichever test you choose, encourage your team to share their results and reactions with their co-workers by hosting a live reveal video call.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2023\/10\/620Team20Building20Techniques20for20the20Hybrid20Work20Era2003.png?strip=all&#038;quality=95\" alt=\"\"><\/img><\/p>\n<h2><b>4. Lunch and learns<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><b>Goals:<\/b> Building skills, fostering communication, bonding<\/p>\n<p><b>Scheduling: <\/b>Synchronous<\/p>\n<p><b>Team Size: <\/b>Large or small<\/p>\n<p><b>Personalities: <\/b>Extroverts<\/p>\n<p>Lunch and learns are just what they sound like: Employees attend a meeting during lunch to learn something new. When done well, these events can help employees develop new skills, communicate better, and get to know each other. To get the most out of a lunch and learn:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p>Make it optional. Some workers may not want to add a lunch meeting to their day, and that\u2019s okay. Lunch and learns work best when the attendees (and presenters) are excited and fully present.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Invite employees to teach. Not only will attendees learn something new, but the host will develop their own presentation and communication skills.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Keep it short. Keep the activity to 30 minutes and reserve the rest of the hour for an optional lunchroom chat.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Invite the occasional outside expert. If employees want to learn a particular skill but no one on your team has that knowledge, invite a colleague or professional speaker to present.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Don\u2019t overdo it. Daily or even weekly lunch and learns can be overwhelming, so consider keeping it to once a month and then adjust up or down as you get feedback.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><b>5. Virtual volunteering<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><b>Goals: <\/b>Sharing values, bonding<\/p>\n<p><b>Scheduling: <\/b>Synchronous or asynchronous<\/p>\n<p><b>Team Size:<\/b> Large or small<\/p>\n<p><b>Personalities:<\/b> Extroverts and introverts<\/p>\n<p>Volunteering as a team is a great way to bond while living your company values, but finding the right activity for a virtual or hybrid workforce can be challenging. The best activities can be done as a group while aligning with your company\u2019s or team\u2019s mission. For example, if you\u2019re a marketing manager, consider using some of your team\u2019s bandwidth to help a charity revamp its website. Or facilitate a mentoring program to help junior professionals or kids get career advice from industry professionals. <\/p>\n<p>Whatever activity you choose, support your employees by giving them company time and supplies to participat<b>e.<\/b><\/p>\n<h2><b>6. Virtual scavenger hunts<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><b>Goals:<\/b> Problem solving, fostering communication, bonding<\/p>\n<p><b>Scheduling: <\/b>Synchronous or asynchronous<\/p>\n<p><b>Team Size:<\/b> Large or small<\/p>\n<p><b>Personalities:<\/b> Extroverts and introverts<\/p>\n<p>In-person scavenger hunts are classic team-building activities, and you can get the same benefits on a virtual or hybrid team too with a few tweaks. The key is to work together as a team (or break out into competitive sub-teams) so employees get to work together and be creative. <\/p>\n<p>Design prompts around things everyone on your team has access to. Have your team hunt for photo ops at home, Google creatively, or capture live moments with Zoom video recordings or screenshots. Finally, reserve time at the end of the activity for teams to share their finds in a slideshow or via an online whiteboard tool.<\/p>\n<h1><b>The Bottom Line<\/b><\/h1>\n<p>Hybrid work is here to stay, and managers need new strategies for team building that account for the combination of a remote and in-office workforce. Creating bonds among your team is more than possible with a hybrid workforce. However, a ping-pong table in the break room and regular outings can\u2019t bring your team together as they do for in-person employees. If a hybrid workforce is your new normal, take the time to analyze your team\u2019s team-building needs and build an intentional program to address them with hybrid-friendly activities.<\/p>\n<p>
