1 Trivial Pursuit
Teams are asked to devise a board game, plan the marketing of it and quote for producing
1500 copies of the game. They need to be well-organised and to delegate the tasks
effectively. Good teams quickly set priorities and get to work immediately keeping it simple. A
firm hand from a decisive leader/coordinator is required to get everything completed before the
deadline.
2 Bertram's Bike Ride
In this activity the team has to plan for a local bike ride as part of a marketing campaign. Poor
teams wallow in uncertainty and do not set or achieve objectives. They also make
assumptions about how long people can ride for and the type of entrant, etc.
3 Towering Inferno
The Brief for this activity needs to be handed to one person in the team. The other members of
the team are all primed to react in a certain way -one to be negative, one to be encouraging;
others have various special skills or disabilities. The Brief instructs the leader to try to involve
all members of the team in constructing a tower from the resources available. The activity
shows how a diverse group all have their own skills and positive contribution.
4 Framed!
This is the most challenging of the five activities. The team is asked to design three picture
frames and for each make samples in three different sizes. The frames must hold a picture
(cut from magazines) and stand up on a desk and teams must cost the manufacture of 3000
frames at each size. Teams are told on the Brief to minimise wastage.
5 Working Breakfast
This activity involves teams in producing a mock-up of a cereal box, providing a good design
for the box and creating cut-out models. Instructions for constructing these are required plus
an assessment of the minimum number of boxes needed to meet a target cost of 20p per item.
The training activities are ideal assessment tools to test skills and abilities at an assessment centre before recruiting staff. It is used on graduate induction courses and all types of management programmes where teamwork is a focus.
Key Skills

Comments from Users of this Training Activity
“We used Assess that Team! in the recruitment of potential team leaders. The best learning points were about reading the question(!), clear tasking on detailed issues, careful time management and review. The activity represents very good value in the context used - where the time available was limited.”
