Objective
Save the Museum highlights the importance of optimising teamwork to reach better outcomes as a group.
Context
Our Organic Leadership programme at Gemstone includes an optional teamwork session that breaks down what leaders need to do to improve collaboration outcomes. Key topics include:
- Competent courage
- Psychological safety
- Collaboration spaces
Save the Museum gives participants the opportunity to experience the challenges related to teamwork in a non-work context.
How the game works
During two rounds, teams problem-solve to come up with a plan to protect as many exhibits as possible, before using their investigative skills to figure out who was behind the heist.
Avenues for exploration
The game could be digitised, enhancing immersion. There is the possibility of new variants on the game, allowing the same participants to play more than once.
