Masterind Activity with Synergy Learning at Mozilla HQ

For groups who want to build their capability to prioritize and strategize, MasterMind Olympics™ is for you! In MasterMind, teams are given more tasks than are possible to complete within the allotted time. Teams must evaluate their resources and make a plan; the winner is the team that can strategize, prioritize and communicate most effectively. An intellectual and playful competition to reinforce learnings . . . and get your team fired up!

Who Benefits

• Meetings that need an energizing and engaging activity to bring people together

• Groups that must prioritize multiple activities and decide which will have the greatest return

• Teams that must quickly match skill with task to create maximum output

• Groups that need an increase in familiarity and “ice breaking”

How MasterMind™ Works

Teams of up to 12 people are given a box containing 15 different subjective and objective challenges chosen to utilize all parts of the brain. Each challenge is scored based on completion or on “judging” at the end.

• Intellectual - Develop flexible thinking with puzzles and brainteasers.

• Building - Design and build towers and various contraptions within given constraints.

• Creative - Receive points from judges for best Makeover, Human Machine or Team Talent Challenge.

• Verbal - Think on your feet to complete verbal picture puzzles, write haikus or come up with palindromes. Effective in small groups and even better with larger groups, energy and engagement run high in the MasterMind Olympics™, with challenges complex enough to engage the highest level of any organization.
