Corporate Teams
Challenge, fun, activities, learning about individual potential, effective
teams and team productivity. In the inspiring setting of Brunei's forests,
rivers and jungles.
Intrepid's experiential based programmes immerse participants in a series of
progressive challenges. Coupled with discussions and review sessions, they
present fun, practical situations to test and develop individual skills and group
productivity, plus specific work-place skills and
communication strategies.
Programmes utilise well proven methodologies
to maximise learning outcomes.
| Trust and mutual support are
essential foundations for effective teams.
Our programmes include risk taking exercises that
forge closer teamwork and highlight important team
effectiveness factors.
Learning by doing is the basis of our experiential
training. |
 |
Comparative studies of organisational change and personal
development training prove that new surroundings greatly increase the
retained
learning from a training experience. Further, that an experiential format,
especially when combined with a wilderness setting and
adventurous activities, is the most effective methodology.
An experiential
training format is relatively fast, and has the most
substantial short and long term benefits.
Learning experiences in
Intrepid's
Team Development Programmes
are designed to link decisions, actions and consequences.
Calculated risk-taking, task requirements, and people
considerations all form part of the training experience.
In our unique training situation, the results of team decisions are immediate, clear and
personally relevant. Essential organisational tasks - such as meal preparation
- can be part of the training process. Success is important for the entire
group. The insights and understanding are
meaningful and long lasting.
Team games and challenge activities are used to highlight topics,
but real situations in this unusual environment have proven more effective to
develop new patterns of group interaction
and personal involvement.
 |
Planning is an important programme element.
Finding the balance between time spent planning and
instant action is one learning
outcome. |
Our training areas are normally remote and challenging. The
natural environment presents realistic problem-solving
situations, and the opportunity to see team issues more
clearly, without distractions. Review and discussion ensures
experiences are related back to the real work setting.
Implementing sound safety practices using equipment which
meets recognised international standards is an integral
part of the training experience.
Adventure is a central ingredient of the learning process. An adventure
is a step into the unknown. Therefore the written programme cannot possibly
contain all the details; that would
not be an adventure. The adventure in our programmes creates productive learning experiences.
Our Team Development Programmes are directed by Allan
Riches; a professional educator (B.Ed., M.Ed.Admin., MACE,
AAIF.) with the relevant academic and
practical qualifications, and 25 years experience
designing and conducting adventure based wilderness training.
Allan helped established Outward Bound centres in a number of
countries, and consulted with users and standards
organisations in the testing, selection and design
of safety equipment for adventurous training. He developed
Risk Management procedures for a number of adventure
based training organisations and instigated major changes in
the engineering and construction of adventure training
activities and apparatus throughout the Asia Pacific region.
As a Churchill Fellow he visited forty adventure based
training organisations in North America and Europe to learn
their training and safety practices.
With this background,
Intrepid'sclients can be assured that safety and
effective learning outcomes are an integral part of all
programmes.
| Planning, good organisation, personal commitment and
effective communication.
The ingredients for a well earned jungle meal; and
an effective business or government enterprise. |
 |
All our Team Development Programmes are designed to support corporate goals, so developmental outcomes are beneficial for individuals, and the organisation.
Each programme is different, to cater for specific
organisational goals and team capabilities.
Intrepid's
has a variety of venues and activity options
available, within and adjacent to Brunei.

become a lot more fun, and a lot more effective.
