Objective

Participants are asked to share something personal in answering questions asked by their team members.

What You Need

• Question cards.
  • These cards include a number between 1 and 20 as well as the question.

• Place questions cards in a hat or a box.

Setup

• Ask the participants to sit in a circle in the training room.
