Highly engaged teams are up to 23% more profitable. Team building pays off.
Why Team Building Is a Smart Business Move
You know you’ve had a good training day when someone says, “My face hurt because I smiled so much.” (That’s an actual quote from one of our training participants!)
That kind of reaction signals more than enjoyment. It shows engagement. And engagement matters. Research shows that highly engaged teams deliver 21–23% higher profitability and make better decisions, faster (Source: Gallup). Team building is not a “nice to have.” It is a performance strategy.
Teams Perform Better When People Are Involved
The most effective team development is hands-on and practical. When people actively participate through discussion, problem-solving, and shared activities, learning sticks. Teams walk away with clearer communication, stronger trust, and a better understanding of how to work together under real-world conditions.
At UNC Charlotte Corporate Training and Executive Education, we see this impact consistently. Participants value programs that are engaging, approachable, and directly tied to their daily work.
