Do team-building events work?

Escape rooms, axe throwing, obstacle course… No, they’re not SAS training regimes - these are all examples of the new trend hitting offices across the world: team-building events!

To discuss, Andrea is joined by Margaret Cox, CEO of ICE Group, Matt Levell, Founder of Axe Club and Damien McCarthy from H.R. Buddy. Image: Axe Club
