Heller Teams Course Teams Course A one-of-a-kind experience for your group … Located within the beautiful 97-acre woods of Heller Nature Center, our Teams Course feels like a different world. Programs on the course can be customized to meet your specific team goals such as exploring different communications styles within the team; understanding the roles of leaders and supporters within a group; developing your group’s specific teamwork, problem-solving, and decision-making skills; and discovering the great impact a shared experience can have on group dynamics, all in a safe and private environment. The course is made up of a series of thought-provoking ground-level puzzles, challenges and obstacles, each one having a specific set of tasks and an end goal that can only be accomplished by all members working as a cohesive group. Throughout the program our experienced facilitators lead group discussions on the insights and skills learned to help the team progress further along the course and integrate new ideas into their daily lives. The Heller Teams Course is perfect for organizations, businesses, scout troops, school groups and athletic teams. Book Your Team Activity Now! Teams Course is available year round.
