Trust Fall / Free Fall Team Building Activity

Trust Fall is an activity most commonly practiced by groups who want to build on the confidence and trust amongst teammates. Many companies do trust fall activities as a way to build connection amongst employees.

Generally, one person stands up straight and falls back relying on the others to catch them before hitting the ground. Participants standing behind needs to work together helping to catch the person falling.

While the first person’s fall may be slightly nerve wracking, it gets easier and easier as each person in the group sees positive results. Trust can grow with successful execution.

Trust Fall is an exercise that can literally be used in an organizational and teambuilding realm, and it can be just as powerful in metaphorical form.

Ultimately the trust fall works because each person understands that they have a powerful and effective group behind them, ready to rise to the occasion. Think about how you are utilizing your own team and where each person’s trust resides
