Team work card game

Building better team dynamics through exercises

People who work together well need more than just technical skills; they need to get to know and understand each other. The reason why fortunes are spent on team-building exercises is because we intuitively know this. As cost-prohibitive excursions aren't always an option, we've created a game that most people can play at home with just a little time and a room.

Teamwork contains 100 questions that playfully and sensitively introduce us to our colleagues by setting up the best kinds of conversation about everything from our childhoods to our values. Played as a group, we’ll end up in profound, eye-opening and meaningful chats that humanise colleagues in each other’s eyes and help to create an atmosphere of forgiving and kind collegiality around the office: this is the best and easiest way to turn individuals into a team.
