Treasure Seekers

Treasure Seekers is used for Teambuilding, Communication, Influencing, Leadership and Negotiation training.

It is an adventure set in a hostile environment…  Two teams are formed, each with the same objective: to get as much gold as they can in the shortest possible time.  Can either team succeed…?  

Treasure Seekers demonstrates the level of communication, general organisation and willingness to co operate, within the whole group.

Goals of Treasure Seekers

  • To allow individuals to discover how they communicate effectively with one another, and to see the impact this has on other people.
  • To provide a team with the opportunity to identify how they currently work together.
  • To highlight the real benefits of departments working together.
  • To practice using different styles of leadership with different people, in different situations.
  • To identify how individuals interact and influence each other.

 

Forest of Time

Forest of Time is used for planning and organising, time management and project management (process and project teams).

Experience this forward thinking management game for yourself.  It starts with a very important mission………….  

In a village faraway, people are dying of that horrible disease, Slackloose Grinkley! Every minute counts as you use your time and project management skills to save as many villagers as possible.

You must clarify your mission, seek all relevant information, plan your strategy, utilise your team members and deal with reactive tasks as they occur. 

The team that uses its time and project management skills most effectively will win the day by saving the most villagers.
