Team building should feel human, not forced. WitWorks team building workshops help your people connect through active listening, support, and shared laughter. Using improv based learning, your team practices saying “yes,” trusting their gut, and adapting in the moment. These are everyday skills strong teams rely on in meetings, projects, and change. Sessions move quickly, stay practical, and give people clear takeaways they can use right away.

Trusted by organizations like eBay, Grange Insurance, The Ohio State University, and Honda, WitWorks designs team building workshops that feel fun and still respect your time and goals. Your group gets space to connect, reflect, and practice new habits, without awkward icebreakers or forced fun.

    • Facilitators with international experience across industries
    • Sessions built around your real communication and culture challenges
    • Clear links between each activity and workplace situations
    • A warm tone that supports all personality types
    • A structure built on psychological safety and adult learning

    Activities stay playful and clear. No one is asked to “be funny.” The focus stays on trust and collaboration. To see how this approach strengthens safety and connection, share the blog “The Playful Path to Trust: How Improv Builds Psychological Safety at Work.”

  • These workshops strengthen the habits teams use every day. Participants practice:
    • Listening fully before responding
    • Saying “yes, and” to build on ideas
    • Adjusting when conditions shift
    • Naming assumptions
    • Supporting teammates in visible, specific ways

    These skills show up in meetings, client calls, and collaborative work. Over time, they reduce miscommunication and help people bring honest feedback and new ideas.

    For teams exploring leadership or culture change, the blogs “Be Changed: The Improv Principle That Teaches Real Leadership” and “Fake Collaboration: An Improv and Workplace No-No” provide useful framing.
