What:

  • This Icebreaker game is designed to bring team members closer to each other. Participants need to work together in order to find the answers for some personal questions.

  • Who will win? All of the participants by having more information about each other. Get to know each other increases trust between team members, establishes psychological safety and contributes to a high-performing team.

Who:

When:

  • It can be used as icebreaker before scrum sessions, brainstormings, any type of meetings.

How:

  • Facilitator should think about a theme for the exercise (Christmas, etc.). Identify questions related to the selected theme, like "What was worst Christmas present you have ever got?"

  • As a preparation for the exercise ask all participants to answer one of the questions and collect their answers.

  • Update the template with the questions and integrate the answers to the word search part.

  • Use the exercise as 5 minutes icebreaker for your meeting.
