We use the informative, entertaining, and revealing Shapes and Colors team building exercise. The goals of this teambuilding exercise are to demonstrate that...

  • everybody has multiple talents
  • often one talent predominates
  • successful teams need people with different talents
  • members of successful teams understand and tolerate talents other than there own

The workshop can typically be delivered in about 2 hours. It includes:

  • a brief and humorous description of four personality types
  • why successful teams include all talents
  • a colorful self-analysis exercise
  • a typically humorous sharing of the self-analysis

The workshop is non-threatening and people who hate participative workshops typically enjoy this exercise. Click here for a sample of the handouts for this workshop.
