Over 150 team members from TRP gathered at the serene Hotel Kimberly in Tagaytay for an unforgettable day of team-building activities. The event was designed to foster unity, collaboration, and a lot of friendly competition—all while helping each individual discover and harness their unique strengths. TRP, a pioneer in the automotive parts industry in the Philippines, is known for producing high-quality components like Lever Combination Switches and Window Regulator Switches. As they continue to expand and innovate, increasing their production capabilities, team cohesion has become vital to their ongoing success.
Kicking Off with DISC: Embracing Unique Strengths
The day began with an insightful DISC personality workshop, allowing team members to dive into the nuances of their personalities and work styles. This self-awareness helped the team understand the value of each personality type in a collaborative environment, enhancing how they interact, support, and work together to achieve shared goals. As TRP ventures into new arenas, such as testing services and double injection molding machines, a unified team that recognizes each other’s strengths will be key to scaling operations successfully.
Growth Mindset and Bonding in Action
With the foundation set, the team moved on to engaging activities that blended fun and learning. First up was "Scrabble Ramble," a game focused on growth mindset words, challenging participants to think critically while working within the constraints of limited Scrabble tiles. This exercise encouraged everyone to brainstorm and problem-solve, skills that directly translate into the workplace, especially in TRP’s dynamic production environment.
Musical Synergy with Team Harmony
One of the most memorable parts of the day was "Team Harmony," where team members joined forces to create music. 🎶 Using a variety of instruments, the activity underscored the power of harmony—both musical and interpersonal. As TRP grows and incorporates new technologies like CNC machines for molding die parts, the synchronization demonstrated here will serve as a metaphor for the unity needed in TRP’s fast-paced environment.
Channeling the Competitive Spirit
The event took an exhilarating turn with physical challenges designed to foster teamwork, resilience, and trust. "Blind Grand Prix," an obstacle relay where participants navigated blindfolded with the guidance of their teammates, highlighted the importance of trust and effective communication—essential elements in TRP’s production line and new ventures in testing and fabrication. This was followed by an axe-throwing activity (with plastic axes, of course! 😅), which not only injected some competitive fun but also emphasized precision, a skill that resonates with the exacting standards of TRP’s manufacturing processes.
A Day of Collaboration and Energy
Throughout the day, team members displayed incredible energy, collaboration, and problem-solving abilities. By the end, bonds were strengthened, new friendships were forged, and TRP’s teams left feeling recharged and aligned with a shared purpose. This team-building experience is sure to have a lasting impact, driving TRP forward as they continue to lead and innovate in the automotive parts industry.
