1. Building a High Performance Team 
   This session will allow the group to explore ways they could better work together. All that is needed for this session is a room large enough for the group to move around freely (approximately 100 square feet per person). We bring the rest! We will provide a facilitator for every 15 people in your group, so you can be sure to receive plenty of individual instruction. This program has been highly successful with all of our clients since 1984, and is the foundation that supports the rest of our programs.

3. Cooking up Teamwork … Come and Get It! 
   This event will give the group an opportunity to prepare a 4 course, gourmet meal designed by an executive chef, who will assist us through the event.  While the meal is being cooked, the participants are excused to the dining room to discuss their team performance with an experienced CMI Facilitator. As participants enjoy the completed meal, the chef will give feedback on their cooking performance and give them some take home tips. We have sites in Chicago and its suburbs that can host this event. 
    

4. Ready … Set … Perform! 
   Bring your group together for an event that will bring back the good old days!  Work as a team to design, build, and race a remote-control race car on the brand new indoor racetrack in suburban Illinois! This is a great event to address team performance issues including budgeting, individual accountability, customer service, and more.
    

5. Make a Difference Days 
   Looking for a way to give back to the community and serve various not-for-profit organizations? Looking for a way to inspire powerful performance among your work groups? Let us design an event for your company that will help you accomplish both of these objectives in an educational, meaningful day. Whether it’s building a playground for inner-city children, building furniture for under-privileged families, or assisting with food and clothing drives, we can design excellent team training around the event.
    

6. Scavenger and Orienteering Event 
   We offer great scavenger hunt and orienteering events in many different locations, including metropolitan Chicago. This event allows your group to work together to find clues and scavenger items using a compass and their newly developed pacing skills. It is great to watch the celebration of our clients as they work together to find all of the items that have been strategically hidden on the orienteering course.
    

7. Team Kayaking 
   We can take you and your company out for a kayaking and orienteering experience. Participants will be challenged to pilot a kayak to specific stations on a lake using only a compass for direction. This is perfect for a group that wants to experience bonding, group dynamics training, and a lot of fun!
    

8. High-Ropes, Rock Climbing, and Ground Initiatives 
   We have a site in which we can work with groups as large as 100 people to inspire powerful performances. The site, located in Des Plaines, has meeting rooms, an indoor high ropes course, 6 climbing walls, and lots of room for our classic teambuilding initiatives.

Our sessions are built around business simulations that focus on developing collaboration and teamwork that improve business performance.  These programs can be tailored to indoor or outdoor venues.  A visit to our web site at www.cmiteamwork.com will give you further insight to our capabilities.  We recently did a session with a major corporation at their annual sales meeting and received the following unsolicited feedback from one of the participants.

“…I want to add my thanks for the very insightful time spent with you and your team.  It is truly amazing how much can be learned and transferred to the workplace from the small tasks that you took us through.”
