Personal Attribute

Use to help a group get to know one another better

1. You will need index cards or similar paper and a basket to collect the cards.

2. Ask everyone to write something about themselves that people are unlikely to know on a card. For example, I’m a certified underwater diver, I grew up in South Africa, I enjoy poetry, etc.

3. Then collect the cards in a basket.

4. Each participant draws a card from the basket and has to locate the person who wrote the card.

5. Participants sit down when they have found their person and have also been found.

6. After everyone is sitting, go around and read the information from the cards.

Organize by Birthdays

Use this as an energizer after lunch

1. Explain to the group that their assignment is to organize themselves by their birthdays. Give them no further instructions. You are intentionally giving them an ambiguous assignment. Birthday could be interpreted to mean year of birth, month or day or birth, other variations. What you are actually asking them to do is figure out how they want to define it and then implement that order.

2. Your job is to observe their process, looking for how leadership emerges, what roles different members of the group play, what processes they use, and so on. Debrief by asking them to reflect on their own process and, where helpful, sharing your observations.
