The Great Strategic Challenge
Program highlight
An innovative team activity that stimulates communication, problem solving and strategic thinking in an atmosphere of “serious fun”. The participants are faced with an unexpected problem to solve. No one can do it alone, everyone in the group MUST be involved. At each step, the risk is high, the opportunity is there also. An error can mean the end. To succeed, the team must review its options carefully before making any move.
The participants will need to listen to each other, analyze information provided, decide a common course of action, and they will have little time to do this. The time limit reveals characters and different personality emerge. Eventually, the participants get to discover how they operate within a group. It represents a strong baseline on which to build to improve performance.
The teams are “transported” deep inside an abandoned industrial complex stuffed to the brim with both dangers and opportunities. What happens next..?
Activity
- The teams need to resolve a problem. To do so, they are requested to make numerous decisions that directly impact their ability to succeed.
- At each step, only one decision is good, all others lead to failure, waste of time, or waste of resource.
- All teams have the same information at the start, and to succeed, they must understand it, leverage it, remember it when the time is right.
- Communication is key as each team member has his own information: dialog allows everyone to share his input and should lead to the best decision.
- The activity rewards a calm approach – not easy to achieve as the clock counts down. The pressure to make rash decisions can be unbearable!
- We bring our experienced facilitator plus all equipment to your venue, your conference room, meeting room, restaurant, etc.
The scenario is thought-provoking and fun with focus on teamwork. Teams are transported deep inside an abandoned industrial complex stuffed to the brim with both dangers and opportunities. Radiation levels are rising while air quality steadily deteriorates. There are many rooms linked by many doors. Which route will your team take?
