I definitely agree on this. This has been displayed at our company's yearly team building events. Such activity can really conquer personal rifts between co-workers and help facilitate better work relationships.

If team performance and, especially, the development is not reviewed then the activity is more pure fun. I am a strong advocate of facilitation. The common mistake is that, after a team activity, the supervisor tells how the team performed. Much better learning process is reached when the facilitator makes the team to process themselves their accomplishments. Facilitator's role is to direct the review away from physical accomplishments into team performance.
