  • 1.  Task activity in Teams

    Posted 05-09-2010 13:12
    Dear Colleagues,
     
    I am looking for ideas about a reasonably involving task activity in teams, preferably indoors, that can be conducted in a session of about an hour plus, to include discussion on learning from the experience, on how successful teams interact. We intend to use it in a corporate executive training programme.
     
    I will be glad to compile the responses (to the group or to me directly) and share them with the listserve.

    Thank you,
    Ravi Bangari

    Hi Ravi,

    Marshmallow challenge would be an interesting choice. You can find more info on this website: http://www.marshmallowchallenge.com/Welcome.html.

    I have used a simpler version in my BBA class and it was very engaging. However, I think the one described on this website would be a better choice for corporate executives. Let me know if you need detailed explanation of the simple version.

    Best,
    Golchehreh
