The team is the beginning,and achieving goals
is a success.

Over time, I have been part of several teams, no matter what function I have and the positions I have occupied. And each of them was different because each member understood differently what a team means and how it should work. To a large extent, I realized what an effective team could do: achieve its goals.

The primary ingredient, however, is the constant focus on objectives, coupled with the mobilization of team members who know how to work together and take on their responsibilities. I think sometimes the relationships between team members go together with the consumption of the activities they are involved in at work; sometimes, there is a need to create opportunities for that team spirit to form and develop.

The teambuilding – another step to consolidate a team

Such an opportunity was also the recently organized teambuilding in Vișeu, Maramureş Country. Not all of our colleagues participated, but through the specifics of our activities, we have realized the need to develop further those elements that determine our team’s performance: group identity, social support, and sense of cohesion. This team building is another step…

From my point of view, it was a successful teambuilding; regarding the location, accommodation, food, and drinks, everything was 10 out of 10 if we look at it that way. I enjoyed getting to know the people in the company (those who were present) and their involvement and openness. The organized conversations were a great addition to me; I had the chance to discover their problems. All in all, it was a pleasure to meet you. 🙂

– Romulus Susanu (Technical lead)

I enjoyed the area(I guess it’s because it was the first time I went to the Viseu area, I admit) – maybe it would’ve been more interesting to see the Waterfall – if the weather conditions allowed and, maybe next time I’ll be able to stay longer. It was great that the new colleagues from Cluj have been officially introduced. I hope we will be going again soon with the whole team.

– Adrian Buda (Developer)

I liked it very much because I managed to get to know people more closely, to see what challenges they have on a day-to-day basis, to see that they are united (up to a certain level) and that they can develop what they already have if there are will and patience. It was excellent; I liked it a lot, next time we have to introduce some more activities, to be more entertaining.

– Florin Roman (CIO)

I liked it. Spending time with my colleagues outside the workplace has helped me get to know colleagues better and interact more with the ones I did not have the opportunity to do so previously. I’m sorry we couldn’t go to the Waterfall this time, it was a good plan. I know the fact that when some of us excluded ourselves from the Barsana tour was not necessarily the best attitude, but I firmly believe that, on the other hand, it strengthened the links within the “rebel group” 🙂 The meeting with the two new colleagues from Cluj was very long but beneficial.

– Levente Geiger (Support Team Leader)

This team building was much better organized than last year, and I got to know my colleagues better.

– Patricia Achim (Junior QA)

It was great considering that it was the first teambuilding for me, I had fun, and I think I got a little closer to my colleagues. I liked it and would go again anytime—an excellent choice for the hotel.

– Denis Cirțiu (Middle Developer)

I liked it very much! This was the first teambuilding for me within the company, and I cannot compare it with anything else. I am grateful I got to know my colleagues better and had a lot of fun. Maybe I would have preferred more activities together as a whole, but I enjoyed the ones in smaller groups, too.

– Ramona Pascu (Junior Developer)

It was super, and the location and all ….I think the meeting was a bit longer, knowing that Florin and Romi will indeed have more suggestive and valuable discussions with each dev. It would’ve been great if the weather conditions were better, but that is something one cannot control.

– Adrian Costin ( Junior Developer)

The team building was good. Positive points: location, accommodation/room, food, sightseeing, visiting Barsana Monastery, watching football matches. Less favorable issues: lack of sports and parties in the evening, lack of a plan of activities, activities with low attendance and in small groups, lack of colleagues taking part in the team building.

– Călin Pop (Senior Developer)

Teambuilding: 2 exciting days in which we had the opportunity to meet some new colleagues. We spent two lovely days together in friendly company. It was an excellent opportunity to spend more time with our older colleagues with whom we do not socialize much during the working day at the office. The accommodation and service conditions were perfect, and I appreciated everything regarding the Mirage Resort. The rooms were ok; maybe the bed was a little uncomfortable (cushions and blanket, for sure). The idea of coming to Mara for lunch was excellent.

– Alex Blidar (Senior Developer)

It was a pleasant experience. The location was fantastic, with the mountains surrounding us. Even if the activities were only a few, I felt relaxed. I learned a lot about myself and thought I got to know myself better and my colleagues in this Team Building. Eager to find out where the path leads with all the new approaches.
