What team building activities can be done in an hour?

Hosted game shows are the workhorses: Best Corporate Feud, Jeoparody Live!, Trivia Blast Live!, Spin It 2 Win It! and Match Me If You Can each list 1 to 1.5 hours for 30 to 1,000+ people, and the host arrives with the production. Bears and Blankets is a 1 to 1.5 hour charity program where teams build bears and blankets for children in distress, and Charity Game Show closes with a check donation to the charity of your choice. For remote teams, Virtual GuessTeamate and Virtual Mind Games list 1 hour, and Virtual Speed Networking and Virtual Escape Room: Escape the Office list 1 to 1.5 hours on video.

An hour is enough when the program arrives ready to run: a professional facilitator on every program, planning and coordination handled before the day, and a scoreboard, awards or donation that closes the session inside the slot.

What clients say

We have done game shows at all of our sales meetings in the past, but your Best Corporate Feud program using keypads that involved everyone at the event with the game show ending was the most innovative and inclusive game show we have ever done.

You are an incredible host and I thank Best Corporate Events for making our event a success. Thanking you from the “Beary” bottom of our hearts.

Having the Bear program at our corporate event was a HUGE hit! Our clients and partners were engaged and loved creating the stuffed animals. This was our first time attempting to do a charity event during our conference and the feedback we received was amazing. This is definitely something we will plan on doing for our next user conference. Your team was lovely and we were thrilled to have had them guide the group and be so helpful. Thank you so much for helping us make our event a huge success!! We will be in touch next year as well.

Our Best Corporate Feud Game Show was on time and fun was had by all. Your Master of Ceremonies did a great job of getting the crowd energized and he had a great sense of humor. Thank you for your team’s efforts in making our meeting a success!

Watching everyone design their t-shirts for the bears after learning the reason for the activity was fun. It became a competition for some tables to have the most creative and cheerful shirts. I think they really enjoyed the program. There were lots of Selfies and smiles going around when showing off their bears. It was a fun event!

Our Bears and Blankets program was very well organized and it was fun taking photos throughout the event. The best team building aspect of program was using the iPads to have interaction among team members. Everyone enjoyed it.

Which team building programs run in one hour?

Virtual GuessTeamate and Virtual Mind Games list exactly 1 hour. Best Corporate Feud, Jeoparody Live!, Trivia Blast Live!, Spin It 2 Win It!, Match Me If You Can, Charity Game Show, Orientation Game Show, Bears and Blankets, Virtual Speed Networking and Virtual Escape Room: Escape the Office each list 1 to 1.5 hours, so they fit a 60 or 90 minute slot.

Can a one-hour program handle a large group?

Yes. Every in-person program on this page lists 30 to 1,000+ participants. Best Corporate Feud adds audience response technology for groups of 100 or more, and Trivia Blast Live! includes a mobile response system so every participant answers from a seat. Virtual Escape Room: Escape the Office lists an unlimited group size.

How much space does a one-hour program need?

The game shows and Bears and Blankets list 25 square feet per person, and physicality is low across the page. Best Corporate Feud, Jeoparody Live!, Spin It 2 Win It!, Match Me If You Can and Charity Game Show are indoor programs; Trivia Blast Live!, Bears and Blankets and Orientation Game Show run indoors or outdoors.

What equipment does the room need?

Most game shows ask for a projector and screen plus a sound system and microphone. Trivia Blast Live! needs sound and a microphone for groups of 50 or more, and Bears and Blankets needs Wi-Fi access and a microphone for 50 or more. The virtual programs run on your video conferencing platform of choice with a stable internet connection.

Is there a virtual option that fits in an hour?

Yes. Virtual GuessTeamate and Virtual Mind Games list 1 hour; Virtual Speed Networking and Virtual Escape Room: Escape the Office list 1 to 1.5 hours. Each runs on your video conferencing platform of choice with a professional host, and the escape room needs no software install. See all virtual programs.

What is included in a one-hour program?

Every program includes a professional host or facilitator and event staff. The game shows add game materials, projection or scoreboard setup, buzzers or lockout systems and awards or prize packages. Bears and Blankets includes the bears, stuffing, t-shirts and blankets plus donation coordination with the partner charity. Best Corporate Feud lists all planning and coordination services.

Who runs the program?

A professional facilitator runs every program. In-person game shows arrive with a host and event staff, Virtual Speed Networking adds a tech facilitator, and Virtual Escape Room: Escape the Office offers a live host or a self-hosted option. Programs are delivered nationwide with no added travel costs in the continental U.S.

Can the content be customized for our group?

Yes, within each format. Best Corporate Feud uses survey questions written for corporate groups, Virtual Speed Networking lists customizable discussion topics or mini-challenges, Virtual Mind Games lists customized digital challenges, and Spin It 2 Win It! offers an optional charitable component. Tell your program specialist what the hour should cover.

Is an hour enough for a debrief?

For game shows the wrap-up is built in and short: awards or medals with Best Corporate Feud, a final leaderboard with Trivia Blast Live! and Virtual Escape Room: Escape the Office, end-of-game recognition with Virtual Mind Games, and a wrap-up with shoutouts in Virtual Speed Networking. Bears and Blankets ends with the donation handoff to the partner charity.

What about 90 minutes or two hours?

Most programs on this page list 1 to 1.5 hours, so a 90 minute slot fits without changing the format. For two hours or more, a program specialist can match a longer program from the catalog; the indoor team building activities page is a good place to start.
