On a crispy and sunny winter morning, a team of adventurous executives from Atos Medical was having\u00a0breakfast, sitting around a bonfire outside of a ski chalet on the Asiago Plateau<\/strong>. It was an unusual start to their day, but \u2013 having been our clients for some time now \u2013 they were used to expecting the unexpected. Adventures aren\u2019t necessarily something that happens only in the past and in faraway lands. In this case, for instance, our group only had to travel a few miles, from nearby Padova, to find themselves in the perfect setting for an unforgettable team building adventure<\/strong>. Italy makes a team building planner\u2019s life easy. It doesn\u2019t matter where you are at any given time, you are an hour away (two at worst) from a fantastic natural location<\/strong> that will make your event memorable and exciting. The one we chose as our headquarters for this experience is called Prunno<\/strong> and it is a unique adventure base on the Asiago Plateau<\/strong>, offering a wide range of terrific outdoor activities<\/strong> and with its own restaurant, specialising in mouth-watering local recipes. The base enjoys a spectacular view, set in a beautiful meadow surrounded by woodlands, it\u2019s more approachable than the nearby alpine peaks, but still as detached from the bustling metropolitan vibe of the north-eastern industrial district as it is possible to be. The meadow, incidentally, is the ideal spot for a bonfire.<\/p>\n What we wanted for our client was some quality-time away from the office, doing something unusual and exciting. That’s our simple-yet-always-effective recipe for adventure team building. We know, however, that busy execs, on an average day, don\u2019t have time to train for extreme sports<\/strong><\/a>, so we needed our chosen activity to be safe and approachable even by those with no previous experience of it<\/strong>. We divided the group into four teams and gave each team compasses and customised maps. Their job was to find their way through the woods and the valley and reach seven hidden locations<\/strong>. Each stop gave them a chance to\u00a0win points for the team, either by getting their maps stamped or by successfully completing certain tasks \u2013 such as shooting an arrow while blindfolded, lighting a fire with nothing but stones and sticks, climbing a tree or building a stilt house<\/strong>. Of course, for each and every one of these activities, we hired trained professionals to guide our team and make sure each task was undertaken in total safety<\/strong>. Once all teams had completed their set missions, we welcomed them back to our operative base with a cool Spritz and a selection of local delicacies (the legendary Asiago cheese). The day ended with a delicious dinner at the chalet\u2019s restaurant.
