Brazilian percussion team building: why this ‘sambatical’ retreat?
Percussive team building is an exciting opportunity to connect and strengthen the bonds between your team members and makes the corporate experience extremely worthwhile.
Indeed, participation in a percussive ensemble provides the group members with a universal language.
In this way, it allows one to feel part of a large mechanism, made up of people who share goals and ideals and in which the presence of each individual is indispensable.
In essence, the desire to align oneself with others arises in every person and, therefore, one naturally predisposes oneself to listening before taking a position.
In a context of mutual listening, the stances of individuals (any musical solos) are more likely to be collaborative and instrumental in achieving the group’s goals.
What are the benefits of this experience?
The advantages of involving a group in this type of team building are innumerable, among them:
Conveying the company’s vision and mission to managers and employees through the universal language of music.
Thus the members of the company feel part of one big mechanism, of a whole that shares the same ideals and works for the same purpose.
Development of effective communication: the music creation process requires effective communication between team members, which results in sharper and more empathetic communication in the business context
Team growth: the sense of achievement and bonding between team members will be strengthened by increasing team cohesion
Stress reduction: music reduces stress and improves well-being, enhancing good disposition, productivity and employee engagement
Development of leadership skills: participants have the opportunity to develop their leadership skills while directing or performing in front of the group.
What qualities does the team building rhythms of samba enable?
The proposed team building is fruitful because it activates qualities that are indispensable in business:
- awareness of one’s role
- aptitude for collaboration
- sharing motivations
- spontaneous search for harmony and integration
- activation of subtle attention
- communication based on empathy
From the synergy between individuals, a collective voice is formed that embraces individual specificities and takes them to a higher level, structuring itself into a group consciousness.
The proposed activity
Team Building is suitable for all types of teams, whether small groups or groups of dozens.
Indeed, in small groups it is natural to work on listening and a sense of participation.
Instead, in larger groups, the cone of light of the training activity shifts to the sense of belonging.
No training or skill is required, the activity is conducted by professionals who give all the necessary guidance.
At first, the musical language is presented and each participant is given time to become familiar with the instrument and rhythm proposed.
Then, we proceed to create dialogues between instruments and rhythms, either simultaneously or individually, but always in the context of the group.
At the end of the work, a musical ensemble is created, a great metaphor for teamwork because music, like life, can only be done one way: together.
