Team building activities with no setup

Most team building games need cards, paper or someone keeping score. Here the questions are ready, everyone answers from their phone, and scores and results appear on the big screen as answers arrive.

  • Guess who: a quiz built from facts colleagues share
  • Two truths and a lie, with the lie as the right answer
  • A 100-point vote to agree on priorities
  • A wheel that picks who speaks first

A 20-minute session in five questions

Open with a word cloud, play two rounds of guess who, run a 100-point vote on what the team wants to improve, then spin the wheel to pick who follows up on the top priority. Collect the guess who facts in private a few days before. The free plan allows five questions per presentation, which fits this plan exactly.

In the room, remote or hybrid

Show the QR code on the screen for people in the room and paste the short link in the video call chat for everyone else. Answers are anonymous by default. Turn on first names only for the games: the quiz leaderboard and the wheel use them.
