Instructions Working as a group, draw (3) overlapping circles, as shown on the next slide. Each member of your group of 3, is assigned a circle. In the area that does not overlap any of the other circles write at least two unique facts about yourself, one that differs from anyone else in your group (e.g. Born In Austria). In the overlapping areas write a common fact applying to everyone in the overlapping areas. For example A and B might both run marathons but C does not - so they would write this in the AB area of overlap. Where all three circles overlap the you need to find a fact that applies to all the group members. Let’s take a look at the diagram now!

Instructions Seated in a circle, one person will start us off by performing an action and give us a sound or statement. For instance, they might jog in place and hum the national anthem. The next person in the circle (moving right) is to copy EXACTLY the actions and sounds, intended or unintentional, of ONLY the person before them and add a sound and action of their own. For instance, a person may perform the action and then giggle – this giggle MUST become a part of the next person’s action. Any Questions?

Instructions This Icebreaker will be performed with your eyes closed. Close your eyes. I’m going around the room and will whisper in your ear either Monkey, Frog or Dog. Frogs, of course, make a “Ribbit” sound, dogs go “Woof”, and monkeys go “Ooh Ooh”. Now by sounding off with the animal sound I’ve assigned you, and eyes closed, I want you to try and group yourself together with other, monkeys, or dogs or frogs in the room!

Instructions Let’s begin by getting in a circle. I’ll start us off by tossing 1 ball to someone in the group and say our names (e.g. “My Name” to John). We’ll continue, until everyone has received the ball, ending with the last throw back to me. We will then start with two balls, throwing each ball to the same person as in the first round, and saying both your name and theirs each time you throw a ball. Are you ready to get started, any questions? Refer to notes section below for help or tips about this slide. Copyright © 2013 Training Games, Inc.

Instructions I want to ask you all to wander around the room and mingle and mix with each other. As you’re wandering look out of the corner of your eye and choose a person that will become your ‘Invader’. You’re going to be avoiding your ‘Invader’. Once you’ve selected your ‘Invader’ select another person in the room to be your ‘Guard’. In a moment I’ll call “Start”. Remember you must do all you can to avoid your ‘invader’, not allowing them to engage and try to ensure your ‘guard’ is always between you and your ‘invader’.

Instructions In the Line Up exercise, you will have a chance to learn things about one another you may never have thought to ask. Let me ask all the teams to stand and line up together. This is a team competition and I will give the instruction to a group or team to line up in a particular way. For example: Line up by height – shortest to tallest Your team should get in a line as quickly as possible. When your team is lined up appropriately all team members should clap to indicate they have completed the task. Questions? Refer to notes section below for help or tips about this slide.

Instructions This exercise is designed to allow our group to become more acquainted with each other. I will hand out a copy of the Treasure Hunt to each person. You’ll start by moving around the room and finding people with at least one similarity with you (e.g. born in same county), and one dissimilarity (e.g. waited tables as a young man). No-one is allowed to complete more than one slot on any one card. The winner is the first person to have all the lines completed. Any questions?

Instructions Everyone has a bingo card. Your card has twelve pieces of information. Your task is to find people in the room to whom each piece of information applies to and then to write their name in the that box. You need to find someone for each piece of information. When I blow this whistle you must pair up with someone and check whether any of the information on your card applies to them. If so, write that person’s name where it applies. After 20 or 30 seconds I’ll blow the whistle again and tell you to change partners. Keep doing this every 20 or 30 seconds. The winner is the person who first completes their entire card.

Instructions Introduce yourself telling us your name, job role and anything else you think is important for the group to know. In addition, explain why you chose the unusual object you did when you entered the room. You might explain just why this particular object appealed or had meaning for you. I’ll even challenge you to try and incorporate the object and its characteristics into you introduction! ‘I chose the sponge because I want to soak up as much information as I can today and I think it will help.’ ‘I chose the golf ball because I’ve had a long drive in today, but I’m ready to come to the fore and hope I’m treated in a fairway.’ ‘I chose the stick of gum as I’ll need it to chew over the problems and ensure the message sticks.’ Refer to notes section below for help or tips about this slide.

Instructions Let’s get together in one large circle and everyone hold up ten fingers. We will go around the circle and ask each person to announce something that they have never done, beginning the sentence with the phrase “I have never…” For example, a person could say, “I have never taken a sick day from work when I had a hangover.” If a statement is made that a person in the group has done, those folks must drop a finger. The goal is to stay in the game the longest (to be the last person with fingers remaining). Refer to notes section below for help or tips about this slide. Copyright © 2013 Training Games, Inc.
