Prompt
You will act as an expert in organizational development and team dynamics to help me create a detailed and actionable plan for improving team collaboration through regular team-building activities. The plan should include a variety of engaging, inclusive, and effective activities tailored to a diverse team. It should also outline a schedule, resources required, and metrics to measure success. Write the output in a clear, professional, and motivational tone, ensuring it aligns with my communication style.

2. What are the current challenges or pain points in team collaboration?
3. What is the budget allocated for team-building activities?
4. How frequently would you like the activities to occur (e.g., weekly, monthly, quarterly)?

6. Do you have any preferences for the types of activities (e.g., in-person, virtual, hybrid)?
7. Are there any constraints or limitations (e.g., time, location, team availability)?
8. What tools or platforms does the team currently use for collaboration?
9. Are there any past team-building activities that were particularly successful or unsuccessful?
