Your Questions About Team Building Activities For Adults

George asks…
What are some effective team-building activities that promote togetherness and respect?
I am a youth leader at my church and also a leader of the young adult/youth choir. Lately I’ve noticed a somber mood amongst the choir and there isn’t the camaraderie that was there a few months ago. Everyone is stressed and no one is enjoying singing on the choir anymore. There’s an explosion of attitudes during rehearsals and so much negativity.
The church members don’t support us when we sing. They just sit there and stare at us. That could be part of the reason for the decline in morale. Plus, there are individuals who are 20,22, 24, 25, and 31 and they receive no respect from the younger members of the choir.
With all that being said, what are some great activities that can be used to promote togetherness and change the attitude and overall dynamic of the choir? Our choir anniversary is Sunday, September 19 and we need something quick and effective.
Thanks!

Get everyone sitting in a circle playing circle games. Mix people up so they’re sitting near people they don’t know so well, so split older members among younger ones. One good activity to promote positivity might be where everyone has to say something positive about the person to their left. Play Chinese whispers, maybe get everyone involved in a discussion about songs you could sing.
Hope it helps
