Teammates' Guidebook
The simulation is a great way to get to know a new team, but also gives the more experienced team the energy to refine their collaboration.
Getting to know the team and team building
What is the need? For a team that wants to get to know each other and learn about each other's ways of working faster than would otherwise happen in everyday life. What is each of us like as a team player and how can we work together so that we can each give our best to the job? The simulation is well suited as a first simulation for a new or changed team.
Why does it work? When we don't know each other, first impressions can be misleading and we make wrong interpretations. We run into challenges that result from wrong conclusions.
The early stages of a new or changed team involve getting to know new people, both from a work perspective and otherwise. However, this happens very slowly in between work. Simulation speeds up this process.
What about in practice? The simulation consists of 10 scenarios, each dealing with the natural behaviours and strengths of the individual, such as working in a hurry or playing a natural role in a group. In each situation, we discuss together how the issue affects the team. The content and topics have been developed together with our long-standing partner Integrata.
STATEMENT 2: MY ROLE IN THE GROUP
What role do I prefer to play in interaction situations?
ARGUMENT 3: EMOTION OR REASON?
Do you base your own work decisions more on emotion or reason?
CLAIM 4: ACTION IN AN EMERGENCY
When I'm in a hurry, what's the easiest trap to fall into?
STATEMENT 5: ANNOYING PRACTICES
What annoys/irritates me most about the way things work in general is

Objectives
- Getting to know each other's working styles and practices in a new or changed team
- Helps to discuss needs, desires and natural ways of working.
- Support the team to find common approaches
- Accelerate the building of trust
For whom
- Primarily for teams that have recently undergone changes.
- Also suitable for a team that has been working together for a longer period of time.
- Recommended number of participants 4-16.
- Multi-selection does not involve judging the strengths of colleagues, which makes it possible to play with people who know each other less well.
