VR: an original idea for a team building activity in French-speaking Switzerland!

Looking for an original team building idea in the French-speaking part of Switzerland? We'll tell you why virtual reality is an excellent way to boost team cohesion, and what you can expect from a successful team building activity. FunPlanet offers two virtual reality centers, so it's easy to organize your next VR team-building event at FunPlanet.

VR: Fun Planet's original team-building idea

Why choose virtual reality team-building?

The use of new digital technologies makes team-building activities ever more stimulating and immersive, by recreating ultra-realistic conditions. 

Beyond its playful aspect, virtual reality makes it possible to engage the same issues and respond to the same challenges as those addressed by classic teambuilding programs, namely: 

  • Improving coordination and collaboration, 

  • Speed of analysis, decision-making and strategic thinking,

  • Optimization of communication, 

  • Stimulating creative thinking,

  • Encouraging innovative thinking, 

  • Developing problem-solving skills. 

These are still the same internal resources essential to team performance. However, immersion in virtual reality enables people to connect in new ways, and to do so with a much higher level of agility.

By offering different adventures to participants, virtual reality transforms the practice of team-building. VR technology appeals to participants' emotions, such as the sensation of vertigo, fear, the impression of speed, the need for agility, relief... Beyond simple entertainment, each scenario mobilizes the composure and commitment of your employees. To create real group cohesion, the team needs to get to know each other and know how each other works - that's what team building is all about.

Virtual reality to boost team cohesion

Working together implies being able to rely on the company's other collaborators at various levels: organization, communication, information flow, delegation... This is not a matter of course; it requires a fluidity that is built up day by day. A team-building experience is designed to accelerate this cohesion-building process. 

In total immersion, VR enables participants to immerse themselves in a hyper-realistic virtual environment and enjoy a unique, unforgettable experience in a relaxed atmosphere.

Once immersed in the virtual universe, the situation will require teammates to communicate well with each other, while demonstrating cool-headedness and analysis. For some, it's a question of surpassing oneself, of facing up to one's fears and getting out of one's comfort zone in order to progress in the mission: reflection, support, collaboration and even stress management are all part of the equation. The exercise demands genuine cooperation throughout the adventure. 

"Placed in an uncharted universe, some participants reveal previously unsuspected skills. This awareness of each individual's potential improves collective performance", notes Pierre-Eric Sutter, director of the Observatoire de la vie au travail, in an article published on the Les Echos website. (https://start.lesechos.fr/apprendre/gagner-leadership/cinq-nouvelles-formes-de-team-building-1176697)

Within the group, sharing encourages surpassing oneself: effort, experience and success are shared. VR is therefore a fun, interactive technology that can motivate and engage participants.
