“The topic of the training “Team Building” is important to everyone both in every-day doings and in unusual situations when a mutual understanding must be reached among different people to meet a goal. The training worked well to provide new information and ideas and look at common things from a new perspective. This was done through an informal method – learn while learning, which gives an opportunity see how the new knowledge can be put to practice. Not only I, but other participants as well reached a conclusion that team building is often an important yet absent step towards reaching a goal” says a volunteer Līva Liepkalne.
Participant of the training Lauma Jēgere found the training useful for self-development and self-discovery, finding one’s own hidden resources through working alongside one’s peers. “I really liked the creative workshops because I can learn more doing things in a fun way. The tasks we did will be useful in the future to implement other creative activities such as team building. I believe every participant benefited from the training as it gave a chance to find your inner leader and learn new things about a team and how it works for example cooperation.
