When an international organisation like European Climate Foundation brings together 240 people for a team day, the real challenge isn’t logistics — it’s turning a large crowd into one team that collaborates, trusts and has fun. We did exactly that at the Sheraton Golf in Rome with our Olympic Games format.
The challenge: 240 people, one single team
Engaging hundreds of participants so that no one stands on the sidelines is the true test of a successful team building. We designed a station-based day alternating physical energy and mental coordination, so that every person — regardless of athletic shape — had a role and a moment to contribute.
Olympic disciplines, reimagined
With its wide green spaces, the Sheraton Golf became a real Olympic arena. The 240 participants competed in:
- Archery — precision and shared focus
- Balance challenges — team coordination
- Throwing games and relays — strategy, rhythm and trust in the teammate next to you
You didn’t need to be an athlete: you needed to coordinate, trust and, above all, laugh together.
Why Olympic Games works as team building
In 22 years of corporate events we’ve learned that the playing field becomes a mirror of the group: natural leaders emerge, along with those who listen and those who motivate. Sporting competition, run in a collaborative key, breaks down hierarchies and creates a shared memory that colleagues carry back to the office.

Frequently asked questions
How many people can take part in an Olympic Games? The format is built for large groups: we ran it with 240 people at the Sheraton Golf in Rome, but it adapts from 30 to over 500 participants.
Do participants need to be fit or sporty? No. The disciplines are reimagined as team building: coordination, strategy and collaboration matter — not athletic performance.
