Build a Better Team: The Everest Climb

Teaming efforts sometimes fall short—not because of technical expertise or even knowledge or how to hold a meeting—but because team members don’t make very good decisions together. This workshop engages participants in one of five specific team roles as they do a simulated climb of Mount Everest. The teams encounter challenges during the climb. That’s all we can say here. Those who survive have described this as one of the best team experiences they have had.

Learning Objectives:

• To learn about building, participating in, and leading effective teams.
• To examine how teams can improve the way they make decisions.
• [Other learning objectives are shared in the activity debrief. To share here would compromise the training.]
  

Facilitated by:

Dr. Larry Mallak, Western Michigan University
Mr. Jonathan Rees, U.K.
