High Impact Team Building
THE POWER OF METAPHORS
The power of 3 metaphors. We can do it much more than we
think, we can do it.
​
A powerful and remarkable commitment to a change of attitude.
​
"We can do it" is a complete training to unleash the potential of your team.
The training is formed by three challenges represented by three metaphors: the Board Slam; the Arrow Step and the Ironbar challenges.
​
THE BOARD SLAM
CHALLENGE
The board slam challenge is a
metaphor about our attitude towards life.
It is about the obstacles we face everyday at home and work. How we face them and what we can learn from them.
​
By identifying their obstacles and sharing with their peers, participants will have an opportunity to metaphorically remove their obstacles by breaking the board with their hands.

THE ARROW STEP
CHALLENGE
The arrow step challenge is a metaphor about our goals. It is about our motives and reasons to persist.
By identifying their goals and sharing with their peers, participants will have an opportunity to resist and persist, snapping the arrow and metaphorically moving forward towards their goals.
MAJOR BENEFITS
ATTITUDE
A powerful and remarkable commitment to a change of attitude.
FOCUS
An insightful experience to make us focus and chase our goals.
RELATIONSHIP
A wake up call to make us trust and listen to others without conditions.
THE IRONBAR CHALLENGE
​
The ironbar challenge is a metaphor about trust and communication. It is about our
relationships and truly listening to
others.
Participants will have an opportunity to choose a partner and perform the challenge in doubles.
​
It is sucessful only if partners move forward together bending the steel bar. Thus communication and trust are essential requirements.
A powerful and remarkable experience to make us trust our peers.

“I had a blast at the We Can Do It team building event. The board breaking exercise was a great metaphor for overcoming challenges. The bar bending and arrow exercises were equal parts terrifying and inspiring. I never thought I’d be able to accomplish such feats, but with Mario’s guidance and the trust we build as a team (not to mention a healthy dose of adrenaline), I overcame both. We all left the day with a new sense of confidence in ourselves and in our team. A big thanks to Mario for an unforgettable day!”
