| Building Bridges Discussions can help raise the level of trust in a group. The more people get to know each other in terms of their values and life experiences, the more the kind of understanding is built that deepens the sense of mutual connection and trust. The job of each team is to build half of a bridge to the other team on the other side of barrier. Divide the room in half with some type of barrier so the teams cannot see each other. Both teams are provided with a supply of building materials. Only by talking to each other two teams must construct two halves of a bridge that meets when the divider is removed. The two groups will evaluate the resulting span between them using the following criteria: Alignment, Strength, Ingenuity of design, and Beauty. Key benefit: Bringing the communication gap Numbers: Teams of 8-10 participants Duration: 1-2 hours Location: Indoor Approach: Collaborative and Competitive Materials: Paper, Glue and Tape Other possible modules: Team Culture, Egg Drop, Negotiation Square, Corporate Maze, etc. |
