Team Building Activities

The textile and fashion industry is an extraordinary world with a myriad of potential. To express this potential and work smoothly in today’s context, it becomes essential to manage the internal relational dynamics of each company.

It’s not always easy, is it? The reason is that people are often unaware of how they function. Consequently, understanding others and teamwork becomes challenging.

Through a creative and experiential approach, we guide your company’s employees in rediscovering their authenticity, favoring the development of more sustainable and, therefore, more profitable relationships among individual colleagues, teams, and departments.

What’s your goal?

– Increase trust among individuals?
– Facilitate collaboration and dialogue?
– Facilitate collaboration and dialogue?

Tell us which aspects you’d like to strengthen, and we’ll propose personalized workshops perfectly aligned with your organization’s needs.

We offermodules of a minimum of 4 hours, to be conducted in person or online.

Our method

Mestieri LAB’s Team Building activities include an initial non-verbal work phase based on movement, space management, physical interaction, and play. We believe strongly in this approach because it allows for the loosening of defenses and openness to change.

Participants use symbolic objects to facilitate self-discovery, understanding their own functioning and that of others. By becoming aware of themselves as individuals and team members, people can create connections and engage in authentic dialogue with others.

In the final part of the workshop, we introduce verbal communication, allowing each participant to share what they’ve learned and integrate it into their daily work life.

To create authentic products, we must first know ourselves. The unique ingredient, the one that adds value to our project, is us.

Authentic Leadership course

Our Authentic Leadership course is designed to enhance the leadership skills of individuals within companies, with the aim of improving communication among collaborators, teams, and departments.

Leadership has nothing to do with commanding; on the contrary! At Mestieri LAB, we refer to the ability to inspire and guide others, to focus on goals and achieve them sustainably, without imposing or forcing but motivating inclusively and assertively.

Everyone can exercise these skills if guided correctly. We do this through creativity, with a method that combines non-verbal and verbal expression, play, and movement. Knowing ourselves is the first step: authenticity is the key to creating connections and encouraging people to work with us to achieve a common purpose.

The four modules

#1 Self-awareness

To be a guide for others, you must first know yourself deeply. Do you know why? Because leadership is effective when it is authentic, that is, when there is congruence between what the person says, the way he says it and the way he puts it into action.

Our goal is to accompany your company’s employees in discovering their strengths, those resources and uniqueness that will allow them to be an authentic point of reference for their colleagues. We invite them to get involved in a safe and protected environment, where the diversity of individuals becomes collective wealth!

The aim is to make each person aware of their potential and how to best express it, defining their own leadership style. A unique style, just like every human being.

#2 Self-evolution

We are all endowed with potential, resources and talents. Why then are we not always able to bring them out? What stops us from achieving our personal and business goals? As human beings, we have beliefs within us that block self-realization. It is our own thoughts, our judgments, that prevent us from thinking clearly.

How to do it? The first step towards change is to observe and accept those limits that prevent us from truly being ourselves. The second step is to transform them into resources, training creativity and problem solving skills. In Self-evolution we accompany participants to explore the beliefs that have been holding them back for a long time. Then we encourage them to let go, using creative expression. We help them flourish their ability to adapt creatively to the external environment and thus develop a motivated approach to change.

#3 Purpose

Just as the company needs to know what the ultimate purpose that drives it is, beyond mere profit, so each person needs to know their own personal purpose to give better and be an inspiration to others. Do you know that light that gives a sense of direction to our lives, makes us feel energetic, motivated, open to change? It is precisely that energy that allows us to transform what we really want into a concrete project!

This module is designed to help people within your company clarify their deepest aspirations and develop a functional attitude towards all projects, both personal and professional . In addition to the mindset, also the method: each project is unique, but they all follow a path structured in distinct and successive phases, from the initial idea to implementation. Knowing the life cycle of the project helps to obtain the result in a more fluid and conscious way.

#4 People management

Communication is the beating heart of relationships. Within companies, people constantly interact with colleagues, superiors and collaborators, influencing them through their words and behaviors. This is why knowing how to communicate effectively is so important!
We designed this module to help participants become aware of their own way of communicating, verbal and non-verbal, and how their approach can help build bridges or, conversely, walls. We guide them in discovering new methods of communication, more suitable and functional based on the context, training soft skills. Each person learns to observe by suspending judgment, because well-given feedback allows you to obtain better results and strengthen relationships.

What does it mean to be a good leader, after all? Have a good dose of empathy and kindness, be able to influence without judging and accompany others towards autonomy.
