this retreat

Page 12: “ Ideal Organization ”  Case Study Group Presentation HDF 413   Connelly Clifford David Keach

Space Bot  - one volunteer is blindfolded- all other participants are in a circle around the blindfolded individual - 1 structure is built and placed away from blindfolded volunteer             - Can be made out of things such as pipes, big legos. Anything that will stay together to form a structure- Matching pieces to the structure are scattered around the blindfolded volunteer

Page 13: “ Ideal Organization ”  Case Study Group Presentation HDF 413   Connelly Clifford David Keach

Space bot - The blindfolded volunteer has the privilege to talk as much as they want- All other team members have only a certain number of words each (facilitator's choice)- Goal: to build the exact same structure from the loose, scattered pieces as the previous built one by having the team members instruct the blindfolded volunteer to construct an identical structure in a specific (sometimes flexible) timed period

as little as possible • What happens when there is miscommunication and how

will you deal with it?

Group Juggle • The group stands in a circle• One item is tossed around the circle in a

pattern • The item will be labeled with an issue

their group faces or a positive thing their group has

• The item continues to get thrown around in a pattern

• More items will be added in and thrown in the same pattern

• The object of the game is to balance as many objects as possible

Page 17: “ Ideal Organization ”  Case Study Group Presentation HDF 413   Connelly Clifford David Keach

Group Juggle debriefWhen they are finished we will discuss-• Was it hard to juggle all the objects • Were any objects dropped and if so what were

they • Would you be able to drop an issue in real life • For example what if communication was

disregarded how would your group function • How do you plan to balance things out in your

group

Apocalypse Library List Have 5 to 8 volunteers sit at a table or in a circle, with the remainder of the group looking on. The volunteers are given this scenario:“If mankind were to collapse and by some miracle you were the only survivors, what knowledge contained with three books would you need?” All other books and records have been wiped out. The survivors must all agree on only three books and each survivor who has an idea explains their own choice. The survivors must all agree on the list to rebuild humanity.

The main objectives of this exercise are……• Allow the remainder of the group to watch other members have a

healthy debate• Improve Communication• Teach teams to compromise

making? II. Describe each volunteer figuratively as a part of

an airplane. Volunteers may do this as wellIII. Which volunteers were more introverted or

extroverted?IV. How does an on looker feel about a particular

book choice?V. Did any volunteers exhibit great ideas,

explanations or mediation?

The PSA was having issues communicating effectively, resolving conflict, and showcasing empathy. After traditional name games and energizers, the group focuses on communication. Snowflake is a one on one communication exercise requiring precise description and thorough listening. Successful communication creates two identical snowflakes. Ships and Sailors is a light hearted game works on listening skills and message recognition. The Apocalypse Library List creates group discussion that begins with a few members and expands to entire group.
