Share something interesting
No items yet. Share something with the group!
Each person brings an object or photo and explains why it matters. It is one of the better ways for remote teams to see each other as people rather than tiles on a screen.
The object is a device for getting at something else. People will explain a story through an object that they would not simply volunteer.
At least a day. Without it people grab whatever is within reach, which produces a much less interesting session than one where they have thought about it.
Keep it optional and allow a photo on a phone as an alternative. The bar should be low enough that anyone can participate without preparation beyond a moment's thought.
Two to three minutes per person including questions, so a team of eight fills about twenty minutes.
