Oman Team Building

OMAN TEAM BUILDING

THEY improv now operates throughout the Sultanate of Oman to provide team building on behalf of our clients. With a variety of American-styled corporate events and training programs, we can help to bridge the cultural divides, as well as to bring a little bit of home to employees working abroad in Muscat or elsewhere in the Arabian Peninsula.

A Bonding Workshop is a great way to bring employees together and get them to see each other as individuals rather than job titles. We are also able to use these to teach a variety of other lessons including presentation skills, sales, communication, electronic communication, conflict resolution and mental agility. Ask us today how a bonding workshop can help you accomplish your goals!

Consult with us to better determine how to achieve your corporate goals without anyone knowing that you are doing anything other than providing entertainment. Our Murder Mystery Dinner Shows, Game Shows, Teambuilding Workshops, Scavenger Hunts, or Improv Comedy Shows can all be used for bonding your employees to provide team buliding throughout the Sultanate. We serve Muscat and elsewhere with the goal of bringing people together. It is our goal to help our clients while facilitating understanding between the peoples of the Sultanate and the employees of our clients.

WE COME TO YOU!
We do not have our own venues. We come to any restaurant, hotel, resort, cruise ship, club, or home. We can work with groups of any size in whatever location you want. The specific location may impact the cost and we will discuss this with you.

We can now consult for our clients throughout the Sultanate of Oman, though there may be some legal hurdles in some locations that should not prove that difficult to surmount. Hiring THEY improv allows the best that the US has to offer for our American multi-national companies working within the Sultanate, and to help companies to understand and respect the cultural differences of their hosts. This allows for familiar programs to be brought to their locations at potentially a fraction of the cost of some other more expensive options. This protects our clients from costly situations that a cultural faux pas may cause.

We lead the way for murder mystery shows to get people to bond as they work together as groups solving a series of problems. By doing so, they develop relationships with coworkers while determining the culprit. We have versions with our actors, and others using your executives as the suspects. This can also be done virtually to allow interrogations to occur overseas and in several locations at the same time. Contact us to determine how we can help you bond with your employees and partners without them even knowing! Likewise, we have mysteries that do not involve a murder.

OMAN TEAM BUILDING

THINGS NOT TO DO

Never Rush a Conversation

Omanis are hospitable and enjoy familiarity. Do not rush things and get a chance to develop relationships. Do not act rude and do not speak angrily. Help others to save face around you. As part of this, be on time. Lateness is NOT appreciated and is a sign of disrespect as well as a lack of professionalism.

Never Commit Treason

This is not the US. Speaking out about the Sultan or the country can be considered treason. At a minimum, it can hurt your chances to conduct business in favorable terms. Even if you think that you are just being a bit sarcastic or that it is being said in good fun, it will likely not translate the way you think. Best to avoid any semblance of saying anything that is not 100% positive about the country or leadership of the nation. This is NOT a free country and you will PAY for any failure to unerstand that.

Eating Habits

Never eat with your left hand. Even more so when not using utensils. The left hand is often used for personal hygiene and so using it with finger foods, especially shared plates, is quite gross and inconsiderate. Don't offer someone alcohol unless you know they drink. And don't eat during the day during Ramadan where someone might see you. In fact, don't let them see food as it might cause them discomfort.

Gestures to Avoid

Certain gestures are problematic. Don't point to gesture to someone as that is how one might command a dog. Don't stare at people who are praying, walk across prayer mats, or in front of someone praying.

Improvisational comedy is a great way to have an ensemble entertain your group. Catching the lightning in a bottle, you experience moments that can never be repeated because everything is made up in the moment. The audience shares the creative process and can be active participants in the fun. We are quite congnizant of the need to maintain the dignity of your employees and executives during the process. Simply put, we make them look like stars!

Game shows invite your group to participate more directly through actually coming up on stage, and being put through TV Show-styled game shows to compete for not-very-expensive prizes (we wouldn't want anyone unhappy that they didn't win). This includes many of television's more popular shows along with more customized shows for your group. Truth Be Told is an offshoot of a popular import. This involves your people defending statements about their past which may or may not be true. Trivia Nights, similar to the popular pub games, gets teams to bond with one another and find out more about their coworkers outside of work. Our Audience Olympiads splits your group into two or three teams and have them compete in simple and fun feats of bravado. This can be Human Horseshoes or Face the Cookie, as examples. And if you don't know what those are, we look forward to a fun conversation!

WE CARE FOR YOU! We care for you and your guests. We will discuss your desires for safety measures regarding Covid-19 and want you to feel secure in the knowledge that we are looking out for you, our client.

If you want to have a high-quality show for your friends and family, we can help you with unique performance options. We can provide a private party that they will remember! Talk to us and we can come up with ideas you may never have been able to think of without our help.

The Sultanate has a long and distinguished history, as have so many other countries in the Persian Gulf Region. Though a coastal country, and the second largest in the Arabian Peninsula, there is little rainfall. There are broad swaths of differing ecology providing a vast array of options. Tourism has grown quickly and people enjoy the culture and land. But Oman doesn't actually extend over their lands. The Peninsula of Musandam is on the Strait of Hormuz and is situated on the other side of the UAE, and even has a city within the UAE. While local geography is interesting, the central desert also provides meteorites for study. So with earth, land, water and space. Oman has it covered.

PICK A LANGUAGE

We Can Literally Speak Your Language

ENGLISH

Most of our Arabian Peninsula and Persian Gulf Team Building Events are conducted in English. It tends to be the shared common language, though may need some adjustments for varying cultures and backgrounds. Pop culture, for instance, might not be as shared. We discuss your needs and adjust.

BILINGUAL

We can operate these corporate events in a bilingual environment. You would let us know your concerns and we can incorporate these into your program. We will go over rates and fees and determine the best approach.

ALTERNATIVE LANGUAGES

We do have facilitators from all over the world who can operate for your group remotely or in-person in a variety of languages. Simply reach out and ask and we can work on developing options for your needs.

We serve the entire Sultanate of Oman with Team Building options to enhance employees through our processes. This includes Muscat as well as the other areas of the country and elsewhere in the Persian Gulf region. Our goals are to bond employees, to help reduce employee turnover by improving working conditions of those operating far from home, and to bridge the cultural divides between transplanted workers and local hires. Simply contact us to find out how we can help!
