Notes:
This exercise can be used as an icebreaker, and can provide a particularly powerful introduction to sales or negotiation skills courses.
It can also be used on equal opportunities and diversity programmes, where it can be used to highlight a potential barrier to equal opportunities.
It can even be used to highlight one barrier to creativity and innovation within organisations.
This is a great exercise for building rapport between participants and is particularly useful with a group that do not know each other very well.
