Can't think of anything
19 Answers
My imagination isn't working today.
My colleagues and I have been asked to arrange a team building day and our Group Leader is paying �10 per head (we have to pay the rest). We are going to go for a meal but we also have to do some team building exercise. I can't think of anything to do other than bowling (which I hate), Laser Quest (whatever you call it) and pub quiz.
Anyone have any other thoughts please?
Cheers

tigger, if you want a revealing experience, suggest a discussion on a vague waffly subject such as "Leadership", take the chair, and get some rules from the floor. Your first rule should be written up thus: "Only one person to speak at a time".
Then when, as inevitably, you get chaos with multiple conversations going on, just go completely quiet until it becomes painfully evident what you are doing.
People are very tolerant of bad manners in meetings, and talking sotto voce to somebody else while you do not have the floor is extremely bad-mannered.
I once said to a meeting, "if you can't manage to listen politely to the speaker without chatting among yourselves, then I am going to leave"
They couldn't, and I did leave. My contribution was essential, so another meeting had to be arranged. It was much better-mannered.

Interesting!
Funny you should mention that Whiffs as I do somthing very similar in every day life. I'm always getting interupted when I talk to a group of people so I go completely silent. Then when they aks me somthing I pause a few seconds and say "Oh so am I allowed to talk now am I"? The guilt is then written all over the faces.
