| When was the last
time your team played together? Most people do not even find an
answer before they have decided that teams should not need to play at
all. As adults and mature professional people, playing is something
left to the children in the school yard, and certainly has no relevance to
working more effectively together. In fact, no statement could be
further from the truth! To play is basically to be creative and to
have fun at the same time. |

To play a game is to have fun getting involved in a structured activity that has a common outcome or objective in mind. The end result is just the same...to think creatively, share a common strategy and work together to achieve it. Sound like teamwork? Welcome to the world of games, where team members invariably get so involved and have so much fun that they do not realise until the game is over that they were encroaching on principles of teamwork and team membership. A single game can last up to a few hours to complete, or alternatively, a team can complete a series of shorter games under the same time. Game regulations and conditions can be adapted in either case to harness a particular issue or need within a group. Most commonly, the particular roles and responsibilities that emerge, the method of communication chosen and its evolution, as well as idea generation and decision-making that results, make rich sources of review and discussion. Further, the nature of competition versus cooperation can be effectively presented to the group. Classic
BushLab games include "Disc-Over-i",
"Number

Tightrope" and "The Star".
