Brainstorm Ninja
An engaging workshop designed to spark team collaboration, while strengthening the confidence (and motivation!) essential for more innovative thinking.
Participants practice creative problem-solving skills via a series of small-group, competitive Brain Battles. Think high-school debate tournament meets Survivor Immunity Challenge. (Though no one will eat gross bugs.). There are judges, winners and fabulous prizes. Along with laughs and bonding.
Between "Battles" teams participate in fast-paced ideation around a challenge relevant to your business.
Format works as stand-alone training or intersticial "energizer" for longer team off-site.
