Hep, I need a fun game for a meeting

Good Engrish of the day!

And I do remember that Shake n Bake one. It's in some vestigal memory cell somewhere.

Deanna, does it help to add "in bed" after?

Well, as a professional corporate trainer, I encorporate a lot of activities into my presentations.

What TYPE of activity are you looking for?

One that gets them to talk to other people?

One that gets them out of their seats?

One that gets them to mingle?

Do you want an activity that uses some of your presentation material in it?


If you can give me an idea of what type of activity you are looking for, I can give some suggestions.

Also, it's kind of hard to type out all the details... so if you want to PM me and get my number or have me call you, I can do that. I can help you come up with something really creative that might include something from your presentation.

Wow! Thanks.

Priority - get them to wake up and pay attention on full stomachs

Topic - can be on our product (nurse triage and disease management software), my area (proposals, contracts and custom project services) or anything silly

Physical activity is always high on my list but time allowance will only be about 5 mins so can't have people run around the run too much.

About 20-25 people max from 3 areas which have not previously worked together (can you tell we're in another annual chaotic re-org?).

Heads down, thumbs up almost always wins the vote at my place of work...

[SadieKate]

Huh? You'll have to elaborate. Does it involve holly bushes?

[SadieKate]

Oooh, I just remembered BikerZ's little "Duck, Duck, Grey Goose" pun. Wonder what we could do with that.

Going off an idea someone else said... you can make index cards. On those cards you put let's say... Famous couples (or maybe something that is work related?).

So, you would have, "Fred Flinstone" on one card and "Wilma" on another card. You make enough "couple" cards for the group.

**NOTE: Another idea is that you write down a movie name on one card and an actor/actress from that movie on the other card. Example: The Terminator/ Arnold S. ***

Then you mix them up and pass them out.

You then tell them that they have exactly 4 minutes to find their "partner". The ones who find their partner, will get a prize! The prize can be candy bars/fruit/etc. in a bowl and they get to pick one.

That way, they meet each other- it's fun- they get up and walk around- and they get a snack to wake them up later!

You don't suppose I could do TdF riders and stage wins? Might take all day.
