Team building in Khao Lak is a nice treat when it comes along and I always enjoy the change of scenery when I visit. This hugely fun group came to us all the way from Australia and our two day event for 30 pax was held at JW Marriott Khao Lak Resort and Spa, an awesome resort directly on the beach.
I like running team building in Khao Lak because it has such a chilled atmosphere. It offers a more relaxed corporate retreat than nearby Phuket but is still only around 1.5 hours from Phuket International Airport. Arranging your retreat here means 2-3 days of impressive beaches, beautiful hotel accommodation, seaview restaurants, and plenty of time for relaxation and cocktail-powered chats with colleagues.
I guess you could also consider a couple of meetings along the way…
This particular team building group was a delight.
Day one was an Amazing Race Khao Lak, a fast-paced and high-energy race around the town, beaches, and nearby national park.
Day Two was a dinner team building event at JW Marriott’s beachside Italian restaurant, Olive. A seafood BBQ, cocktails, speeches, and some curious blue lighting and fog. It was a sort of nightclub effect, albeit with a slightly older and slightly less cool audience 🙂
Dinner team building is one of my favourite events to facilitate and I have plenty of hilarious stage games and improvisation games to keep the audience engaged. A few cocktails beforehand always helps get people in the mood.
The above photo from the dinner looks like a husband trying to explain to his wife why he is late home. However, since we were in the middle of a pub quiz, I think it more likely that he was trying to explain to his boss why he got the answer wrong when he was so confident earlier.
Whatever the reason, she’s less than impressed.
