Forest of Time

Learn key lessons in Time Management, Project Management and Teamwork with this training game.

A high quality exercise that is:

• practical  
• fun
• different.

The Mission

The team(s) mission is to save the villagers of Yoves Falls, who are dying at a rate of five people per day, due to a polluted water supply. They need to plan the most effective route through the forest, collecting ingredients along the way – these ingredients will make a potion that is life saving. The quicker they can get to the village, the more people they can save. It will not be easy!

There are two main phases within the game. The first consideration is the plan – the team need to work out their route, taking into account all the information they have at the start. The second is the practical application – they need to move character pieces across the map, using a year planner that notes the journey time.

NB: If the game is being used for Project Management, part of the planning phase will include building a ‘Terms of Reference’ and a ‘Project Plan’. The plan may include ‘A Work Breakdown Structure’, ‘Gantt Charts’, ‘Critical Path’ etc…

The team leader(s) will need to:

• Highlight and prioritise tasks
• Allocate tasks effectively, fully utilising the skills of the team members
• Update the plan, the team members and re-adjust the team priorities, as situations change.

We believe all training should be practical, fun and motivational and Forest of Time is guaranteed to breathe extra life and enjoyment into your training session.
