Team Building in Leicestershire
Leicestershire, a county in the East Midlands region of England, is a popular destination for team building events, partly due to ease of access on the motorway system. The M1 travels through the county, and the M6 and M42 are on the border. Leicester is often considered to be the birthplace of modern tourism. Thomas Cook founded his eponymous travel company here following an enjoyable one-day rail trip from Leicester to Loughborough. The local greeting is ‘Ay up, me duck’, and so our first recommendation for a team building event in Leicestershire is Country Sports. One of the activities available in this event is duck herding. A farmer brings a small gaggle of geese and a pack of sheepdogs, and you have the opportunity to herd them around an obstacle course and into a pen. The dogs are a great support in this endeavour, and you will learn about the calls and communication between shepherd and dogs. As well as verbal signals there are other interesting details. For example, if a dog drops its tail the geese will stop responding to it, as they perceive that it is not serious. This serves as a useful metaphor for managing people.
Team Building Events in Leicestershire
Leicester is home to the National Space Centre, which is a museum dedicated to space exploration, science and astronomy. Our Rocket Launch event could be the perfect team building experience in Leicestershire. We have purpose built launch pads which can powerfully propel a rocket into the air. Your challenge is to build a rocket capable of travelling the furthest distance, without disintegrating in flight. The strength of the design is as important as aerodynamics. Teams will also decorate their rocket, and this is a good opportunity for company branding or conference messages. Mallory Park Racing Circuit is situated between Leicester and Hinckley in Leicestershire, so our F1 Challenge team building event is suited to this location. We provide a strong pre-made chassis, and you build a racer using the materials that we provide. These will be raced, in true soapbox style, in the grand finale. However, in the meantime, you have to consider sponsorship and marketing. This is not just for the car but also the blank canvas baseball caps that we include in your pit stop supplies. Of course, you do not have to choose a team building event connected to Leicestershire. We have a wide range of exciting options, and all of these can be brought to any location.
