Hello all,
I am looking for some innovative game ideas that I can conduct for a team of 30-40 employees during an outing, such as lunch or dinner. These games should not only motivate the employees but also internally push them to participate in the activities. The duration of the games should be between 10-15 minutes only and should be easy to do with minimal materials required.
Kindly help. I am waiting for your reply.
Thanks,

Good Noon Meenakshi,
You can go with collage making or poster presentation. Divide your employees into teams (in a convenient number). Now just give a chart to each team and also 3 newspapers (different for each team). Give them a situation or a topic and ask them to cut the pics in the newspaper that are relevant to it. Now they have to paste those pics on the chart, and once they are finished, they need to explain about the presentation and their work.
For example, say that each team is owning a company and ask them to cut those pics from the newspaper that they feel are relevant to their company's products. Ask them to name their company and also to add a tagline to it.
Things needed: The number of charts depends on the number of teams, and the same applies to gums, blades, and newspapers.

Office Holiday Party Games
Office Holiday Party Games -
Office holiday party games are a great way to bring coworkers together for a little fun and relaxation. Break away from the normal workplace atmosphere at your next get together with these office holiday party game ideas. Your boss will thank you!
Here’s a list of holiday office party games to try:
Funny Employee Awards: Recognize your coworkers for their achievements this year—sincere or silly! Was there one person who always made the coffee in the morning or who used up all the printer paper every time? Create certificates to present during a mini ceremony and present each person with a funny gag gift to commemorate the award. You can also ask other coworkers for nominations or suggestions if you’re having trouble coming up with ideas for each person.
Secret Santa: If you’re looking for office Christmas party games, this is a classic. Draw names a week or two before your party and set a schedule for Secret Santa. For example, on Monday each person can give a Christmas card to their recipient. The next day, have coworkers bring in an edible treat, and on Wednesday have them drop a clue about their identity. Thursday can be a useful object for their desk and Friday can be the final gift. Set a limit on spending if you wish. Here are some additional Secret Santa suggestions.
Trivia: Test your knowledge about your coworkers’ unique habits, interests, and quirks. You can break into teams for a trivia competition or use one of the following versions of these holiday games for the office. Set up a scavenger hunt where each person has a checklist of different traits (such as “more than 3 siblings” or “born in another country”) that they must find another coworker to fulfill. Another option is to simply share as a group “two truths and a lie” and have others guess which items are true and which is false. You may be surprised by what you find out!
When selecting holiday party games for office celebrations, keep them appropriate and lighthearted. You deserve some time off from your job, but nobody wants to be too embarrassed to show up the next day. Instead, find company holiday party games that can be enjoyable and memorable for everyone.

Dear Meenakshi,
You can give them the word "BRICK" and ask them to write innovative uses for the first five minutes on an individual basis. The next five or ten minutes can be spent as a group of 8 members each. The ideas from 23 individuals will increase to 77-80.
You can then explain to them the power of brainstorming in teamwork and also give some prizes to the team with the maximum innovative uses of the BRICK. This exercise was taught to us by our Guru, the late Dr. Rooshi Kumar Pandya.

Hello Meenakshi,
While the ideas suggested here are relevant, you can also try these simple games that do not require much material.
1. Prepare chits with each employee's name and put them in a glass bowl. Pick up each chit and call the respective employee to present something of their interest or expertise, such as a song, dance, short lecture, jokes, drama, and so on.
OR
2. Prepare chits with a few interesting topics to discuss, such as my biggest achievement, my favorite movie, a political leader I admire, my goal in life, something I like most about this company, along with some funny topics. Everyone will pick a chit and talk about it for 5 minutes.
Both of these activities will ensure everyone's participation and be enjoyed by all.
Hope this helps.
