Keeping your team focused during the current economic environment is a difficult task facing many companies.  Many of WCF’s clients have faced layoffs creating morale and loyalty issues for those employees who remain.  They generally see more work without any change in pay and unlikely prospects of any near-term raises.  If these employees are not motivated and energized to perform at a high level, the company will suffer. 
 
It is absolutely critical that the remaining employees stay highly motivated, work well as a team and understand the company’s direction during these tough economic times.  The cost of investing in a 1st quarter team building event is relatively small compared to the consequences of operating with a demoralized team with lower productivity and no clear direction.  The event also helps build a strong foundation with your employees as they tend to work longer hours and take on more responsibilities while also facing their own added stresses from a tough economy.  Without this foundation and a highly energized team, it will be impossible to achieve your goals in 2009.
 
“While we offer many different events, in this type of climate the Team Challenge event is the most frequently selected event.  It is highly engaging but also focuses on teamwork, communication and group problem-solving.” says Murrel Karsh, president of WCF.  “It is predominantly as a result of this event and its value that WCF has been named Best Team Building Company in Chicago for three consecutive years.”
 
WCF’s award-winning programs are designed to help strengthen the foundation within your team while energizing your employees through fun and interactive challenges.  Employees improve communication, break down barriers and learn to work more effectively as a team in a fun and relaxed setting.  The end result is a heightened sense of teamwork and morale along with a renewed focus on the company’s goals. 
 
“In one word, our event at WCF was OUTSTANDING!  Thank you so much for putting together an excellent team building session...  My thanks to you and your team for being professional, thorough and fun!  You were like the ‘Nordstrom’ of training events; everything we asked for, we got.  And we got it with a cheerful attitude.” - Pfizer Pharmaceuticals
