Stranded in the Himalayas : Activity

Build teams that move mountains! Activity participants enjoy a simulated mountain adventure. In this imaginary setting, they must arrive at consensus in order to succeed, and they experience the magic of group power: synergy. Participants face fatigue, dehydration, an avalanche, and more. First, they make decisions on their own. Then, joining the group, they compare answers and attempt to agree on the best course of action. Participants will: aeo Listen closely to coworkers aeo Recognize the benefits of soliciting opinions aeo Understand the power of synergy ...and much more! The leader and participants will have a perfect opportunity to examine the impact of their interpersonal behaviors on one another, on the groupa s effectiveness, and on the outcome of their adventure. Every step in preparation, facilitation, and follow--up is carefully detailed in the Leadera s Manual. The Activity contains the engaging simulation----every participant will need a copy. Leaders will watch teams develop and prosper when they are "stranded in the Himalayas."
