Team Building Games For Remote Employees

Getting your team to connect while we all practice social distancing is a challenge in and of itself. Like most corporations today, yours is probably implementing new work from home initiatives and encouraging employees to stay safely at home with their families while still keeping your business running smoothly. Are you looking for ways to boost employee morale during these challenging times? Try the following team building games for remote employees.

  • Photo of Your Life

Time: 15-30 minutes

Rules: Each person shares a picture of something that tells part of their life’s story – it could be a photo of their pet, favorite coffee or tea mug, kids, TV show, or even the view from their home. Then ask the remote employee to share the story behind the picture.

Objective: These remote team building games can act as an icebreaker for new hires or as a get-reacquainted session for your new work from home team.  

  • Bucket List Challenge

Time: 10-15 minutes

Rules: Host an online or video conference and give each employee five minutes to think about what would make their bucket list of things they would love to do in their lifetime. As each person shares, challenge team members with similar activities to consider working on them together. They can push one another and can check in on each other’s progress.

Objective: Whenever you need a cool icebreaker, turn to the Bucket List Challenge as team building games for remote workers. It can be fun to hear what other people want to achieve, maybe some have ticked off an item and can share their experiences to the rest of the team.
