Description
One of my favorite team building games is the “Terrorist Toxic Explosive Situation.” This is a easy to perform exercise for both adults or teenagers. The goal is to decontaminate a can of “toxic” popcorn that has been secretly placed in the room by terrorists. Your team has to quickly come up with a plan of action, assemble tools and equipment, transfer the material into a “safe” container before the “toxic” substance explodes. A great game to identify the “planners,” “doers,” and “thinkers,” in your group. It also demonstrates the importance of having a good plan. Comes with a debriefing questionnaire to help people understand what went right and what went wrong. A million laughs!
