Hi Hema,
What sort of games are you looking for? The games you play in the training program need to be very relevant to the topic that is being discussed. Otherwise, participants would not take home the learning. If you let us know the topic of the training program, perhaps we could help out better.

Dear Abhinaya,
Thank you very much for your reply. Could you provide me with the collections of games you are referring to? It would be greatly appreciated as I am planning to incorporate them into my next training program by the end of this month.
Abhinaya Chowdhury mentioned, "Hey Hema, I am a second-year MBA student from ICFAI Business School. I have completed my summer internship in the field of outbound training, which involved extensive research on management games. I found a particular link on businessballs.com very useful. Additionally, there are various games available in books like "Games Trainers Play" and its sequel, "Some More Games Trainers Play." Furthermore, I have a collection of original games created by consultants in this field. Feel free to email me if you are interested, as I am more than willing to share them with you. I hope the information provided above will be beneficial to you."
Please let me know if you need any further information or assistance.

Dear Maliha,
Yes, you are absolutely right! Whenever we play a game during our training program, the trainer makes it a point that trainees carry what they have learned. We believe that when learning happens in the form of a game, it has a greater impact, as human tendency is to remember things when they have a practical experience.
I am planning to have a training program on communication skills sometime at the end of this month. So, let me have some inputs from your end for this.

Dear All,
I would like to know a few management games that we could play during the training program or another occasion.
Hi Hema, this is Satish Reddy from ICFAI.
I want to clarify whether you are familiar with certain words. Please remember these words in all your activities.
1. Two important words are "Conscious" and "Conscience." These are crucial for organizations and any living entity.
2. "Generating Ideas"
Based on these two words, try to implement an activity according to the problem or situation.
I will give an example:
Objective: Creating awareness about the "Importance of Communication in an Organization"
Communication from Top to Bottom or Bottom to Top.
Activity: Arrange seating in a row and whisper a word to the first person in that row. The word should not be audible to others except the first person. Pass this word to the last member.
If the last person says the word correctly, the conclusion is "communication without distortion." Nothing will happen to anybody.
If the last person says the word incorrectly, the conclusion is "Distortion in communication."
By playing this game, everybody will understand the value and importance of communication.
You can develop games based on the situation. Create a hypothetical situation according to Management Science and Management strategies.
But don't forget about "Conscious" and "Conscience." Keep these two words in mind while implementing new games.
In the above example:
Conscious: Sending a message to another person
Conscience: Whether I sent the message correctly or not.
Please let me know if you have any questions or need further clarification.
Thank you.

Hi Hema,
Sorry for the late reply. One game that I've used in my communication skills programs is the rope game. It's very useful as an energizer as well. It goes like this:
Materials needed: One rope around 20 feet long depending on the size of the group.
Directions:
Ask the participants to stand roughly in a circle and to close their eyes. It's very important that they keep their eyes closed throughout the game, so do take their commitment.
Then quietly enter the circle and put the rope in the center. Spread it around so that it's roughly in the shape of the participant circle, not coiled up and not crossed.
Tell the participants that if they bend down and grope a bit, they will come across an object (do not tell them it's a rope), and that they are to keep a hold of it all throughout the game.
Once all the participants are holding onto the rope, ask them to work together and form a square with the rope - meaning that they are to stand in the form of a square holding onto the rope.
If you want to make it a bit tougher, ask them to make a hexagon or a polygon, etc.
Give them 15 minutes to work on it.
Analysis questions:
- Were you able to accomplish the goal? If not, what were the barriers to accomplishment?
- What sort of communication mishaps occurred?
- Was there any emergent leadership?
- What needed to happen for the goal to be accomplished?
Hope that helped. Best of luck with your program.

Maliha

Hi Tanu,
I believe that transparency among people and the exchange of free and frank opinions will definitely improve our working atmosphere as well as our performance among teams. Any organization needs to have functional collaboration without which the ultimate goal cannot be achieved.
Try this game:
Make all the people sit at a round table.
Give them an identical piece of paper (if there are a total of 10 managers, give 9 papers to each of them).
Ask each one to write about all the other nine, the way they perceive them, their strengths, and weaknesses.
After completing, whether to sign on each paper (with their name) is the option of the candidate.
Now, collect the papers from all of them. Mix them.
Distribute the papers to whom they belong (i.e., to the person who has been described).
So, all ten would have received feedback on what the rest of the members think.
Let them go through it and give them the opportunity to discuss with the person who has written about them.
This will help the people understand each other better.
It is advisable to have the ultimate boss around the table and also exchange views about him/her.
Finally, assure them that everything is confidential, and nothing will be revealed.
Any Game of Management can be played freely only if you ensure confidentiality.
Best of luck,
Regards,
Hema

Hi Hema,
You can also try the game below (similar to Maliha's suggestion) during your training program.
Requirements: A ball and a dustbin.
Participants size: 2
Procedure:
1. Blindfold one participant and have them stand anywhere inside the training room. Place the dustbin far from that person.
2. Give the ball to the blindfolded person.
3. Their partner will have 3 chances to speak. Within the 3 chances, they should help the blindfolded person drop the ball into the dustbin.
4. You can allocate 5 or 7 minutes for this game.
5. Depending on the crowd, you can adjust the number of chances and the time frame.
