Often the most memorable moments are the most challenging ones. Improving Connections frequently uses experiential tasks as part of our solutions. But these are not necessarily adventurous. Adding an appropriate adventurous component to any program provides an extra level of challenge for the participants. This can be used to provide opportunities to test solutions developed on simpler tasks, to make the program more memorable or to build the team's confidence in its abilities to overcome obstacles. It can also provide insight into oneself and others' abilities and illustrate elements of how the team reacts when under pressure. An adventurous component can accelerate the established cycle of team development towards high performance.
