On Februry 26th and 27th ,Explore Himalaya organized a Team Buliding Programme  (1 night and 2 days) for Ncell  Pvt. Ltd. at the Mountaineers’ Memorial Park in Kakani, Nuwakot.  A total of 21 members from the Carrier Transmission Department ( Ekantakuna office) took part in the program. The program was coached  by Mr Raman Nepali, a well known Team building consultant. A wide range activities and fun games such as Create A Bigger Picture, Conflict Ring, Find Your Partner, Get Your Goal, Real Business, Freedom etc designed for enhancing team performance were the main highlights of the program.

The participants arrived early at the park and were well rested with a good breakfast. After breakfast, the event commenced after all the participants were asked to set up their sleeping tents by themselves. The task was difficult for them but like in every competition the winning team was rewarded by the coach. After the tent building, team was randomly divided into 2 groups which were named as ‘The Rainbow’ and ‘Ace of Spades’. A wide variety of games on teambuilding, motivation, goal setting, team efficiency, morale boosting etc were played between them. Like the name itself, Team Ace of Spades won most of the games played. The main focus of the games and practices during the event was to bring out the best in a team and to ensure self development, positive communication, leadership skills and the ability to work together as a team.  All the members enjoyed the games and the first day ended with a BBQ dinner and a soft rock concert by a local Nepal band called ‘Load-Shedding’. All the participants enjoyed the music and danced to the tunes after a hectic day.
