CJG | DMP Team Building 2024: Seaside Serenity
August 30-31, 2024 – Our CJG | DMP team took a two-day trip to Lian, Batangas, for our annual company outing. Instead of our usual team-building activities, we wanted to create a more laid-back atmosphere where we could relax and bond with each other.
The event kicked off with an early arrival at the picturesque Letmar Beach Resort in Lian, Batangas, allowing us to unwind and embrace the serenity of the beach setting before diving into our team-building activities.
The team building program commenced with games, such as “Guess the Drawing” and “Cup Tower Game,” that encouraged communication, creativity, teamwork, and laughter. These activities allowed us to break down barriers and connect with one another in a fun environment.
As the sun began to set, we took a refreshing swim in the ocean while enjoying the breathtaking views and the calming sound of waves. This moment of tranquility was the perfect backdrop for reflection and bonding.
We concluded the first day of our outing with a classic boodle fight dinner—a traditional Filipino feast where food is served on banana leaves—and lively social activities, including karaoke and storytelling sessions. The sumptuous dinner and momentous socials allowed us to connect with each other on a more personal level, understanding and appreciating each other’s personalities and creating a deeper sense of belonging.
The following morning, we took a break from the fast-paced activities of the previous day. Some of us relaxed on the beach, while others enjoyed a refreshing swim in the ocean. This slower pace gave us a chance to have casual conversations and reflect on our experiences.
This year’s team building event embracing the theme “Seaside Serenity” not only provided us with a break from the daily grind but also reinforced the importance of teamwork and shared experiences in achieving goals – both personal and organizational. As we returned to our workspaces, we carried with us not just memories but also a renewed sense of purpose and connection.
