Activity Overview
Activity Overview
Broken Squares game success is dependent upon building relationships between team members, an awareness of what others need and a willingness to offer resources without any verbal communication. This makes it an ideal Emotional Intelligence training activity. This activity helps develop learners’ problem solving and team building skills, as well as improving general trust in professional relationships in interdependent groups.
To be successful there are two general group norms that each team (4 per team) must adhere to:
- Pay attention to what other team members need as much to what you need
- No one is finished until everyone is finished
Broken Squares is effectively an exercise based on ‘giving’ and the included training activity review focus can easily move to individuals and their feelings, actions and decisions. The message of ‘ being aware of what others need ’ can then be translated into their workplace.
There are sufficient physical materials to work with four groups with 4x participants in each group. Add observers where you can’t form groups of exactly 4, and therefore work with up to 20 x participants. Add multiple sets for larger group sizes.
