A
fun and unique team building event that is designed to foster team dynamics,
collective reasoning, communication skills and creative thinking.
The
schedule guest speaker is Sir Wallace Burgess, the famed archeologist and explorer
to speak about the team work that uncovered the new and most exciting discovering
in the Peruvian jungles in decades - the temple of J&J. But when Sir Burgess
is introduced, a gun battle ensues between Baron DeFalcon and Virginia Jones.
After a humorous short vignette making jokes with company jargon, the Baron escapes
with a part of a journal, declaring that he will find the Falcon of J&J first.
Virginia Jones reveals that Sir Burgess has been murdered and that the supposedly
cursed Falcon of J&J, which he took from the temple, is missing. Virginia
asks for everyone's cooperation.
First,
she divides everyone into expeditions whose goal is to;
1) collect all the pages of Sir Burgess' journal,
2) decipher all of Sir Burgess's puzzles thus discovering the hiding place of
the missing falcon, and
3) through data collecting, information processing and collective reasoning -
identify the murderer of Sir Wallace Burgess.
To
aid teams in achieving their goal, each receives an expedition kit which includes
a portion of the journal, $500 collateral and an expedition work sheet. For every
correct answer to a question posed on the worksheet, the team will receive ten
points. But for every incorrect answer the team will lose five points. In other
words, don't guess. There will be prizes awarded to the members of the team with
the highest point total.
Each page of the journal will lead the teams to a location around the Burgess
estate. At each of these locations teams may discover clues to the murder or
suspects to question. In order to receive the next page of the journal and continue
on their way, teams will be challenged to successfully complete a function, such
as deciphering one of Sir Burgess's riddles or completing a team exercise. Once
all the pages are collected, the final clue as to where Wallace hid the Falcon
will undoubtedly be revealed.
As
the teams work to complete their quest they will also come across clues to Sir
Burgess' murder - the scene of the crime, fingerprint reports, autopsy reports,
etc.
At
a given time, all expeditions must return and hand in their completed worksheets
to Virginia Jones. A thrilling finale explains it all and prizes are awarded
to the winning team.
