Aardvark has a long standing association with corporate Australia in team building and educational activities, offering a range of activities geared to enhance bottom line outcomes, promote and inspire. Detailed team building activities building on self management skills and interactive experimental learning are proven ways of creating a dynamic team, at middle management or in other areas of the workforce. Programs are based around a number of inter related outdoor & indoor activities. The outdoor activities challenge the individuals, encourage personnel and team interdependence and create opportunities for sharing adventure in a learning environment. The indoor program takes advantage of the opportunities that arise in the outdoors and further explores communication issues, the nature of leadership, team support and team building within the context of the business imperatives.
