If your company is looking for a fun, productive and long-lasting team building exercise, consider the planning, process and completion of a mosaic project right in the lobby or meeting room of your building.

As the image takes shape, the weight, size and clarity that emerges is quite effective to the philosophy and merits of teamwork and the natural amalgamation of varied individual strengths comes together to produce an understandable, recognizable and pride bearing permanence to what many hands can accomplish.

Adam Begley has done numerous Team Building Seminars in the past and knows how to enhance the project with easy to understand philosophy and parallels.

Mosaic Art is like Impressionistic Art. Many strange and unfamiliar blotches of color are brought together in a carefully planned accumulation. The result is an understandable, meaningful image that anyone, whoever sees it, will be moved by the teamwork necessary to accomplish it.

Participants will be split into task groups. After a set period of time they will teach their tasks to a station replacement person and then move on to another task where they, in turn, will be taught the task previously done by one of their coworkers.

Everyone works together to search for, select and vote on the actual image that will become their mosaic. Some people will start to cut the tile into specific shapes, some will select the wall where the image will be constructed and sketch a “cartoon” image, preparing and managing the work area. Some people will take the pre-cut tile and begin gluing it in place and others will apprentice. Some people will be gophers, lifters, helping hands standing by and others will observe and formulate progress direction. Soon the entire group is purring along at their common task like fire ants working on a building. It’s absolutely beautiful.

Before the project is completed, every team member will have learned, executed, taught and accomplished every facet of their masterpiece's successful completion.

Just the word “Mosaic” brings the idea of accumulation, harmony and respectable depth of effort to mind. The long lasting effect, with the sheer permanence of this work of art will simply stand as your company’s belief in just how powerful Teamwork and Team Building can have on the positive mental attitudes of the many different people who must consistently work together to produce the quality products and services your customers and clients expect to receive.
