Virtual Reality for Team Building

virtual reality team building

Are you looking to strengthen your team’s relationships and collaborative working process with a fun activity? Well look no further! Virtual Reality (VR) is a great opportunity for employees to engage in an immersive experience while building stronger working connections. In addition, VR also helps to focus on team success skills such as communication, teamwork and problem-solving. Wherever your employees may be stationed—in-person, hybrid, or remote—everyone can participate while using this interactive piece of technology!

Examples of Virtual Reality Team Building Exercises

VR offers a variety of exercise activities that touches on everyone’s interests. Here are a few examples to engage your employees:

  • Pictionary – A charades-inspired drawing and guessing game with time limits.
  • Scavenger Hunts – Race against the clock as teams search for items scattered around a virtual world.
  • Escape Rooms – Solve puzzles with different levels of complexity to unlock the key to escape the room.
  • Employee Training Courses – Team members can work together to learn new skills necessary to complete their roles.

VR Advantages

VR is a cost-effective way to strengthen your team’s internal core! As an alternative to spending costs on transportation, accommodation and other expenses on traditional team-building events, you can bring this technology right to your office or off-site location.

But does VR really help with team building? According to a 2021 PwC article, VR learners are 275% more confident to apply skills learned after training and are 3.75x more emotionally connected to content learned from VR.

Support for the Hybrid Workplace

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, many employees were shifted to home office settings for health and safety precautions. Although remote work has several productivity benefits, employers are eager to transition their staff back to the office. During this transition, businesses have begun to implement a hybrid work model. Essentially, hybrid workplace models blend remote work with in-office work.

A hybrid workplace model helps to increase productivity while incorporating a greater work-life balance. This model provides opportunities for businesses to save money on rental or property costs, as well as office equipment because of the alternating schedule of remote work and in-office employees.

But let’s take a step back. Before the pandemic, many office spaces were equipped with the time-latest technology for work-related task completion. Fast forward almost two years—present-day—such equipment has been left untouched and collecting dust in these office spaces, because of the mass number of remote workers. With the transition to hybrid models, employees will need to be equipped with office technology to execute their workday. However, many of these devices need to be upgraded as they have become obsolete.
