Add Some Team Development To Your VR Team Build
VR is an amazing medium for learning, it’s so immersive, fun and engaging that teams completely forget the real world, relax and start to really be themselves. It’s this disinhibition effect that is so powerful and so useful for team development, behaviours normally hidden come to the surface.
We can run team development across a broad spectrum with a focus and emphasis on fun through to more in-depth team assessment and development but without losing any of the fun and engaging elements of VR that make it work so well for teams.
Develop Your Teams In Completely New Ways
Engage
As per the first VR team building we focus on total engagement, once teams are engaged, then they learn. Our background and expertise in corporate team building allow us to ensure this happens through clever VR activity design and strong facilitation and of course the VR technology. VR in itself creates huge engagement as delegates can be placed in incredible scenes that take them as far away from traditional training environments as possible.
Experience
Adopting principles from experiential learning to VR we ensure that all delegates have extensive opportunity to experiment, reflect and then apply their learning as they progress through the VR team building day. VR lends itself very well to this learning experience and experimentation stage, as it allows delegates to do things that are completely impossible in the real world.
Reflect
To allow delegates to maximise learning our VR Trainers ensure groups reflect on their VR Experience fully and explore all the learning opportunities from their sessions. With careful questioning, group discussions and workshop materials we are able to ensure learning sticks, especially if they have to then apply their new thinking in a follow up activity. VR allows groups to restart or redo activities very easily at the click of a button or take up a challenge mid-way where they got stuck previously, giving them a chance to try a new alternative solution or improve their team problem solving skills or working methods.
Case Studies
VRE ran a VR team building day for Unilever’s HR and Talent teams, helping colleagues learn about each other in new ways and explore how their preferred communication styles impact on their roles in their normal office environment.
We ran VR team development for all their management onsite at Europe’s leading private airport, our VR psychologists over three days observed and ran reflection sessions to great effect for all involved.
Running a VR development session for their global team, our Cyber Psychologists observed their teams working together in VR and then ran reflection sessions to explore their team working preferences.
Our team was required to travel to Luxembourg to deliver a major hybrid team building event for 80 head office staff for the EIF European Investment Fund. Using a mixture of more traditional experiential team building sessions alongside cutting edge VR technology, we were able to deliver new and engaging team building sessions. This created novel learning opportunities and development for a range of important EIF competencies relating to communication and team working.
