What you can learn
An activity to connect participants to each other through content related to the session. This is a great technique to use at the start of a session, so people who arrive early have something to do.
What you need
Flipchart pages stuck up on a wall, with questions. Have a minimum of three (for six participants) and a maximum of five (for 20 participants).
Some questions might be:
- What are your pets’ names?
- What do you know about <topic of="" session="">?</topic>
- Why are you here today?
- What is your biggest strength?
- What is your company’s greatest challenge?
Instruction flipchart:”After reading this, introduce yourself to a stranger and fill in the flipchart questions around the room with them.”
Marker for each participant.
How to do this
At the start of a session stick up the prepared flipcharts around the room and place the instruction flipchart near the front of the room.
Encourage people to read the instructions if they don’t notice them, and let them know they can start whenever they like.
How we’ve used this
We often use this at the start of training courses, or large group meetings, especially if people don’t know each other. It is a great way to get strangers talking at the start of the day.
