Team-building

  • A simple group challenge: get across the room as one line together -- with a twist -- keep your ankles together. This adventure-based learning activity can surface group issues around leadership, decision-making, and group conflict.

  • Whenever a new group forms people are always curious: Who else is in the room? This kinesthetic exercise allows peoples curiousity to show up and to learn about who is in the room. And, does it in a way that gets people working together.

  • This tool is a quick, easy tool that is effective at helping groups understand the different roles in making groups work: different leadership skills. Its based on a piece of feminist theory that understands different leadership skills: Task and Maintenance.

  • Team types is a straightforward tool for participants to learn about themselves through identifying within four different categories, each representing different aspects of how people may operate in group settings.

  • This tool out of the field of "adventure-based learning" is an effective team-building exercise. We've had success with it in Thailand, Burma, Russia, Canada and more -- that's why it's one of our favorites.

  • A tool from the field of adventure-based learning (ABL), puzzle squares is a group challenge that helps to look at leadership issues and communication within a team. The goal is simple enough -- create a square -- but the process elicits key conversation about how decisions get made in groups, and how to communicate effectively.
