The most valid sample for determining the preferred team-building activity among all employees is:
**400 randomly chosen employees from the list of all employees.**
This sampling method is best because it ensures that every employee has an equal chance of being selected, which helps to eliminate bias and produces a representative sample of the entire employee population. The other options are more limited in their representation and may not accurately reflect the preferences of all employees.
