You don’t have to worry about Staff Development team events again!
Faculty and staff are communicating like never before. Teachers are sharing best practices across verticals. Morale is on the rise and turnover has gone down. Student performance data is trending up. Is this a true story? What on earth is going on?
Effective team building, that's what! How do you get some of that for YOUR school or college staff?
Research indicates that faculty members often feel isolated from one another and may have difficulty truly experiencing themselves as part of a team. Related studies also indicate that creating a team atmosphere within the faculty and staff will boost both morale and student performance. So, are team building activities a part of the professional development plan?
See if this describes you:
- You know you should include 2-3 team building activities in your Professional Development plan every year
- You have a shoe string budget at best
- Professionals are too expensive, and besides, you could think of those ideas, if you had time
- You have a few ideas from Pinterest maybe, if you can find that board from last year
- You ran some ice breakers at your last school that weren't too terrible
- You wonder if Post-It notes and markers will really help this communication issue
- Team building is only one of 10,000 things on your to-do list
If so, then you’re probably wondering:
“How will I plan and prepare effective and affordable programs for my staff that are creative and engaging?”
What if someone offered fun and unique options with all the details necessary to plan a great event on your own?
Now available for the first time ever, the DIY Toolkit Bundle gives you everything you need to plan three full team building programs for your staff. Not one, not two. Three. Or you can sample just one.
We’ve created these do-it-yourself team building options just for you.
Whether you are the school principal, a college dean, the human resources professional in the district, a professional development trainer, or other educational leader, we’ve got an event you can choose and implement so you can move on to your next to-do.
Our team has been creating and executing Team Building events for decades. We know what works and what doesn’t. We’ve been in the classroom setting and the staff meeting too. We started just where you are with a blank slate but now we’re pulling back the curtains on some of our most effective programs to share with you.
So what of instead of a blank slate, you had three great ideas with prep lists, set up instructions, materials shopping list, even tips and tricks on how you can customize for your group all for less than a third of the cost of a single professionally-run event?
You are done worrying. Let yourself check this off the to-do list and watch the communications blossom and the tension fade away.

If you are an academic professional who is overworked and overwhelmed, with no time to sit down and plan, let us help you.
If you are a training professional who needs a template with great options you can offer your school teams, we are here for you.
If you manage a team of teachers (or volunteers!) and have run out of options you can afford, you now have a solution.
You’ll have everything you need to confidently plan three affordable team building programs your groups will enjoy and that actually engage them. They’ll be better able to connect with one another, connect with the school’s goals and transfer their excitement to their students.
We’ll walk you (or your user) through step by step how to plan and execute each element of the three different programs.
“I can’t believe how easy you made it!” – Elementary School Principal
“This was awesome!” – Teacher
“What a great idea. This is so helpful.” – School Superintendent Staff
Why trust us? We are PlayWorks Group, a team building event provider since 2002, but our team has been creating and delivering interactive team events since the early 80’s. We’ve been in the classroom and endured staff meetings. We have been in your shoes, desperate to come up with something fresh and different and engaging and having to do it on a shoestring budget. We know you want it off your list but can't let it kill your budget. If you haven’t heard of us, check us out on our website and all over social media.
We have never offered our programs in digital format before. Frankly it is a bit scandalous for groups in the event industry to share this openly, but we truly believe team building is so effective and so important it should be accessible to even those with smaller groups or smaller budgets. Plus, we’re parents and believe the individuals working in our schools should be afforded every opportunity and advantage to succeed.
Each of these events would normally start at over $2,000-$2,500 US if we provide it as part of a live event. For larger groups we’ve charged over $10,000 US for each of the concepts in the DIY Toolkit bundle. We know this simply isn’t affordable for schools and educational institutions. So you have the opportunity to save thousands of dollars.
Who this IS NOT for:
If you have over 40-50 people involved, we HIGHLY recommend hiring a professional facilitator and better yet, a professional team building company to run your program. The dynamics of the larger group, increased materials, higher staff needs and change in timing really do require a lot of experience. Conveniently, we do that. If you need a team building specialist to plan your program for you, please contact us now at 855-TEAM-BLD.
Our Guarantee: If you are not pleased with the DIY Toolkit content you purchased, we welcome the opportunity to serve you by providing a live event at the location of your choice. We will apply double the cost you paid for the DIY Toolkit to your live programming.
