Will on the wireless

Commercial Director Will hit the airways yesterday as a guest on the Mark Cummings Breakfast Show on BBC Radio Gloucestershire.

Bristol Rugby Club had gone on a team building weekend with the Royal Navy to prepare for the big local derby against Gloucester on February 17th. The Bristol squad were challenged to save a sinking ship which had been hit by enemy missiles on the high seas in a flooded simulator and Radio Gloucestershire wanted to find out more about the value of unconventional team building activties.

Will gave the Radio Gloucestershire listeners the lowdown on how team building can be of enourmous benefit to everyone from businesses to sports teams.

They were particularly interested to hear about blindfold driving, which Will explained always takes place on private land with an instructor in the passenger seat, not in the fast lane of the M6!

They also wanted to know how we deal with people who don't really buy into the team building ethos and don't want to take part, which can occasionally be a problem. Will explained that encouargement from fellow team members and some gentle persuasion usually do the trick, and often it's the sceptics who end up getting the most out of the day.
