As workers across the globe navigate their way around another phase of the Covid-19 pandemic, Michelle Moss: director: assessments at Signium Africa, notes just how necessary team building interventions are at a time of “pre” the post-pandemic stage.
“Over the past year people have been talking about mental health issues among staff members unused to working from home and not having personal engagement with colleagues.
“In our quest to give employees the time and space they needed to speak up about issues, it’s become apparent that company leaders were largely focused on the well-being of their staff and did not take the time to fully consider or take care of their own needs. Teambuilding workshops now give them the opportunity to explore these necessities and receive the empathy and support they made sure their staff got.”

Lyra Waters, a sixth former at Queen Elizabeth’s Grammar School, won overwhelming backing for the skate park proposal at an online public meeting last Wednesday.
The meeting was organised by Horncastle Town Council who, as previously reported, have had to scale back their own plans for the Prospect Street site.
A wheeled sporting facility was included in the initial proposals and the council has taken over ownership of the site following an asset transfer from East Lindsey District Council.
However, problems attracting funding forced the town council into a re-think.
