Teambuilding by sail
The importance of the team
Sport teaches us how, to be successful, it is important that the whole team participates with effort. The first rule of a winning team is actually being a team
The company and sailing
Sailing has become a model for companies:
:: Same organisational model
:: Preparation techniques (coaching/practice)
:: Group activity
:: Team management
:: Leadership

In a sailing boat as in a company:

:: Discipline
:: Self-control
:: Self-management
:: Respect for common spaces
:: Group spirit
:: Ability to adapt oneself
The metaphor of a boat relates well to our working day, as the unpredictability of the sea and weather conditions is comparable to that of a competitive market. The similarity between sailing and a business are many:

The variables - on a boat you need to manage situations which change continuously and you cannot rely on past experience (the market continuously changes our way of working)

The role rota on - a boat allows us the opportunity to look at each activity from a different prospective :: Control - on a boat as in business, in moments of difficulty you need to keep your cool as rash or agitated behaviour can create panic amongst the crew and our colleagues

Teamwork - the success of one group over another, in equal circumstances, is obtained only if there is real teamwork

The leader - on a boat as in business, the leader's (skipper's) ability to keep a cohesive team is fundamental.
The mothodology: one new truth
