Instructions We are about to do an exercise which will demonstrate that anything can be achieved with a little effort and a lot of teamwork. Please line up in two groups facing each other and point your index finger of each hand out in front of you. We will then place a floating stick on top of your outstretched fingers so that it is balanced along the top of each person’s fingers in a straight line. Your team must work together to lower the floating stick to the ground without holding on to it, grasping it or losing contact with your fingers. The stick must remain balanced on each person’s fingers at all times. If at any point someone loses contact with the stick, the task must be restarted.

Instructions Seated in a large circle in the middle of the room, we will be discussing a rather ‘hot’ topic. Please take 10 minutes to discuss your own attitudes and views around this topic. Now I want to ask you to split into equal groups by one of the flipcharts. Each group must now discuss the topic from the perspective of the person whose flipchart they are standing at. So, for instance, if you are standing at the flipchart headed, ‘Sales Manager’, you can only discuss the topic from that person’s viewpoint. Each group should use the flipchart to write down the topic views from their allocated person’s viewpoint. Now I want your group to rotate to the next flipchart and discuss the topic from that person’s perspective Refer to notes section below for help or tips about this slide.

Instructions We are going to split the group into two teams, the Detanglers and the Observers. The Detanglers will be blindfolded and should huddled together. A rope will be rapped around you. Each Detangler is to hold onto the rope with both hands. Now Detanglers will have precisely 10 minutes to form the rope into a perfect square, without taking their hands off of it. When they think they have a square, or when the 10 minutes are up, they must place the rope on the floor and place a foot on it, before removing their blindfolds. Any questions?

Instructions You see 8 ½ by 11” papers laid out on the floor. Imagine these are stepping stones to cross a swiftly moving river. Your team has been stranded and needs to cross the river to get to safety. The only way to cross the river is to use the stepping stones. HOWEVER… Only one person can initially step on each stone because once that person moves off the stone, the stone will sink to the bottom of the river. Your team must work together and communicate effectively to get everyone across. BEGIN! Refer to notes section below for help or tips about this slide. Copyright © 2012 Training Games, Inc.
