As part of AZ Hair‘s ongoing efforts to create a harmonious and empowering work culture, we marked Vietnamese Women’s Day with a vibrant event named “AZ Hair Team Building” on October 18th and 19th, 2024, at the scenic Tan View Ba Vi. This two-day retreat was more than just a break from the office – it was an opportunity to foster teamwork, celebrate the contributions of our employees, and create lasting memories.
I. AZ Hair Team Building - A Memorable Experience at Tan View Ba Vi
Tan View – Ba Vi, with its breathtaking natural beauty, was the perfect setting for our team-building event. Located just outside of Hanoi, this picturesque retreat offered the tranquility and seclusion needed for team members to bond and recharge. Its serene environment provided the perfect backdrop for the various team-building activities we had planned, allowing everyone to escape the hustle and bustle of city life.
Whether it was competing in team challenges or relaxing by the pool, Tan View Ba Vi offered a unique experience that left everyone feeling refreshed and inspired.
II. Team Building and Unforgettable Celebrations
At AZ Hair, we understand that strong team bonds and a healthy work environment are key to success. This is why we place great emphasis on team-building activities, especially on significant occasions like Vietnamese Women’s Day. This event is more than just a celebration of the strength, resilience, and achievements of women – it’s an opportunity for us to bring our team closer, enhance collaboration, and express appreciation for the incredible women who make our workplace thrive.
1. Afternoon Team Building: Strengthening Bonds
The first day of our team-building event kicked off in the afternoon with a series of fun and challenging activities designed to bring the AZ Hair family closer together. Against the picturesque backdrop of Tan View Ba Vi’s lush greenery, teams competed in various games that required collaboration, creativity, and communication.
AZ Hair Team Building - Game Stage 1: Cooperation
In the “Cooperation” game stage, teams kicked off with a lively bag jumping race, where the first participants hopped their way forward with enthusiasm.
Next, they faced the tricky challenge of walking while balancing a ping pong ball in a spoon held in their mouths, testing their focus and coordination. Afterward, it was time for hopscotch, adding a playful twist to the competition.
The real teamwork came into play when pairs had to tie their legs together for a two-person, three-legged race, all while blindfolded, navigating obstacles together and putting the flag that holding in their hand to the plastic cup.
Finally, participants shook balloons to make the note papers fall out then held the balloon in the middle of the legs and moved across the finish line to ring a bell, sealing the victory with energy and laughter.
AZ Hair Team Building - Game Stage 2: Capture The Flag
In one stage of the Capture the Flag team-building game, the two teams, each with 5 members numbered from 1 to 5, were split into opposing sides. A flag lay at the center between them. When the host shouted a number – or sometimes more than one number – the players with the called number ran as fast as they could to the flag. The objective was to capture the flag and run back to their team while avoiding being touched by the opposing players.
The challenge lies in balancing offense and defense, as teams must pay attention to the flag to capture while always being ready to pursue the enemy to touch their body. Cooperation, strategy, and swift decision-making are crucial as teams work together to outmaneuver the opposition and secure victory.
AZ Hair Team Building - Game Stage 3: The Amazing Race
In this game stage, participants faced a fun and energetic challenge that tested both their cooperation and problem-solving skills. This race was divided into 4 challenge points, each requiring a different task involving the teamwork of two members at a time. The game started with the first member of the team running to the first challenge point, where they had to cooperate with the second member to pop 10 balloons without using their hands to retrieve the first part of a hidden question.
After this, the second member dashed to the next challenge point, where they worked with the third member to solve a secret letter puzzle, uncovering another part of the question.
At the third point, the third member teamed up with the fourth member to tackle a crossword puzzle, earning the final part of the question.
The fourth member then sprinted to the last point, where the final member was waiting. At this final challenge, while one team member spun the bottle, the last member pieced together all parts of the question to solve it.
Once the question was solved, the last member ran to the finish line and rang the bell. The team that completed all the tasks in the shortest amount of time was crowned the winner, earning the top prize.
Congratulations to the winners of AZ Hair Team Building 2024!
From relay races to problem-solving challenges, every game tested our team’s ability to work in unison. The laughter, cheers, and excitement were infectious as colleagues encouraged one another, forging stronger bonds outside the usual office environment. By the end of the afternoon, it was clear that this was more than just a set of games – it was an experience that deepened our team spirit and sense of camaraderie.
2. Evening Happy Dinner: A Night to Remember
After an action-packed afternoon, the evening gave way to a much-anticipated Happy Dinner. As the team gathered for a delicious dinner, it was time to relax, unwind, and enjoy good food in great company.
After dinner, we took a moment to acknowledge the hard work and dedication of our team, particularly by celebrating our Employee of the Month. This special recognition was followed by a heartfelt toast, expressing our appreciation for the contributions of all our female employees.
We also celebrated those with October birthdays, making sure that everyone felt special on this joyous occasion.
The evening ended with a spectacular fireworks display, lighting up the night sky and leaving everyone in awe. The colorful sparks were a symbol of AZ Hair’s bright future and the exciting opportunities that lie ahead.
