TRIVIA CONTEST

  • Trivia is a great way to keep ones brain sharp and learn about the world.
  • It is also a great team building activity for a corporate groups.
  • We will use Trivia Apps for iPhone & Android.

PEOPLE TRIVIA

One of my favorite team-building exercises is simply called “people trivia.” The name says it all: it’s trivia about the people in your organization and it provides the perfect opportunity to learn more about your fellow co-workers. Ask people to share something about themselves that most people at work don’t know on a piece of paper at the beginning of the tour.  Then during the tour, put this info into a quiz-form and have your guest guess who is this person, i.e. who is a avid skydiver.
People Trivia Team-Building Questions:
Some example questions that can help you strengthen relationships include:

  • What do you want to be when you grow up?
  • What is one thing your co-workers wouldn’t normally know about you?
  • What was your most memorable moment of high school (or college)?
  • What is one story that you used to feel embarrassed about but can laugh about now?
  • What is something you are very proud of?

You can ask everyone the same questions or switch it up for different people–the key is that you are learning about each other as people, not just co-workers. You’ll be learning about each other, having fun, and building an effective team.
