In today's ruthless business world of corporate take-overs, high pressure sales and executive stress, it takes desperate measures to survive. Many companies are declaring war on their opposition and are turning to high tech war games such as Paintball as part of their management training courses. A colourful alternative to dull conferencing and boring sales meetings, Paintball offers a fast paced and exciting way of teaching a group of office workers to work as a team.

As an adjunct to management training courses, Paintball is second to none in teaching communication and strategy. Individuals must function as a unit, calling out the enemy's position and directing their own team's offensive and defensive manoeuvres .

Unlike some rock climbing or absailing courses where only someone completely insane (or vindictive!) would let go of a safety rope, paintballers have a lot more choices. In Paintball, players may decide to retreat and in so doing leave a fellow team member open to attack. Players may even become separated and amidst all the confusion accidentally tag out one of their own side (oopsy!). Alternatively it may be part of an overall plan to use the proverbial sacrificial lamb as a diversionary tactic.

Part of Paintball's popularity with corporate groups stems from the fact that it combines leisure with actual teamwork training. Paintball is an excellent way to settle inter departmental rivalries - sales vs accounting, engineering vs research or waiters vs chefs. Be particularly wary if you work in your companies pay office and have a habit of messing up wages.

Paintball is very much an equalizer . Employer and employee alike, male or female, all compete on an equal footing. As games progress natural leaders emerge. Back in the office, many companies notice a marked difference in morale and corporate team spirit.

Lessons learnt on the Paintball field mean that the left hand knows what the right hand is doing. As a result both customer service and sales increase and so ultimately do profits.
