Corporate Team Building in Dubai
By Jane Daly

Searching the alternatives for Group Structure tasks in Dubai, there countless options on the marketplace from business video games to desert safaris. If you intend to experience something a little bit more challenging, however, you may consider a corporate cruising regatta, or merely a team building mid-day, cruising the lovely waters of the Arabian Gulf.

The occasion could be run as part of a conference/regional conference as a mid-day activity, or as a complete day, with onshore sailing/navigation workouts integrated in to target specific areas of concern within the team - communication, group work or leadership abilities.

The place for this exciting day on the water is the 101 Marina, One & Just, The Palm, in Dubai, and the Emirates Palace Marina, in Abu Dhabi. Luxury yachts differ from Beneteau First 45 racer/cruisers, to an Ocean Voyager 74 cruising catamaran. The occasion is suitable for non seafarers in addition to those with experience, as the yachts are skippered by certified RYA Yachtmaster's who have substantial racing experience. There is additionally one regular staff member onboard, yet the concept is that the business guests learn how to team the private yacht themselves in preparation for the race in the 2nd half of the mid-day.

Offshore digital photography and group colours include some enjoyment to the racing, whilst the debrief and prize offering ceremony, over sunset drinks and canapes, flawlessly enhance a high adrenaline and challenging mid-day.

Making use of yacht auto racing as a platform for management development and group building started after the 2000/1 BT Global Difficulty. The race ended up being the basis of a study to provide an understanding of just what makes a high doing leader and the best ways to sustain competitive advantage. With time, this has actually been converted into lessons on successful group advancement, and private yacht auto racing is now used worldwide as the basis for supplying reducing edge company training.

January 2012 saw the Volvo Ocean Race private yachts drop in Abu Dhabi for an electrifying weekend of close racing before they headed of to Sanya, China on Leg 3 of their round the world challenge. Local residents were able to get up near the action and comprehend a bit more about just how an auto racing team works. This intro led the way for increased interest in group structure on the water and at Eden Yachting we are continuously looking at new and imaginative methods to collaborate with UAE firms so they could add a yacht racing or 'learn to sail' challenge to their global or regional conference.
