Here, employees can tackle the challenge of thrilling via ferratas together and prove their mettle on the Flying Fox XXL zip line. “That being said, however," says Anna Oja of Outdoor Team Geisler, "action-oriented outdoor programmes act as both a mirror and a projection screen in a non-work environment. They are a great way to strengthen the team from the inside out.” In Saalfelden Leogang, managers can experience authentic adventures along with their team while strengthening their sense of togetherness.
