Bring the game. Keep your credibility.

Use a short, prepared activity when the room needs a warm-up, a reset, or a cleaner way for people to connect.

Before the meeting

Choose one outcome, put the activity on the agenda, and tell people what participation looks like. The kit gives you exact instructions and optional language.

In the room

Model a short answer, protect the pass option, and use the supplied timer. The format is designed to be facilitated without becoming a performance.

Afterward

Keep game responses out of evaluation. Carry forward only what the group intentionally created: a useful connection, a laugh, or a better meeting habit.
