Our teambuilding is held regularly once per semester to strengthen the team spirit, get to know the team and motivate the members in active engagement in the life of our organization. We came to our cottage in the Beskydy mountains on Friday afternoon. We started with a dinner at a campfire to get energy for the following team-building activities. These activities helped us to get to know each other better and learn something about our interests.
On Saturday morning, we went for a walk which led us to a restaurant where we had lunch. After refreshing our heads in the fresh air, the workshops and small sessions time came. At first, our ESN Buddy and guest Martin Haváček introduced activities of the Student Chamber of the Academic Senate and added some tips for a successful study at VSB-TUO (60 min). Then, our event coordinator Aneta Černá led a workshop about events organization (90 min). Finally, our board members had a workshop on board member positions (60 min). The purpose of the last workshop was to inform about the responsibilities of individual board positions, solve current problems, and motivate other ESN members to apply for the positions for the next year.
On Saturday evening, we played board games which are very popular in our section. That’s why we have several of them in our office. International students also love them. We also played a pub quiz knowledge competition.
On Sunday, after leaving the cottage, there was an optional hike in the fresh and beautiful nature of the Beskydy mountains.
