Need inspiration to keep remote conferences fun? Or perhaps you’re bringing together a new team and want a original way to introduce the group to each other? Whatever the case, here’s a powerful virtual conference entertainment introductory game that uses the fact you’re all dialling in from home.
As the online conference starts, put up directions to all members that they need to find three items from anywhere in their house that match three particular conditions. Here’s some good conditions you could use, but you can also create your own!
“Find an object which…
…best sums up your personality.
…you received as a gift, and tell us about the person who gave it to you.
…sparks joy.
…has the most entertaining story behind it.
…comes from the furthest away.
…isn’t yours, and tell us why you have it.
…is the most unusual.
…you’ve had for the longest.
…is the most unexpected or out of place.
…you think everyone ought to have, but doesn’t.”
Once everyone has entered and had a chance to grab the items, start the meeting with a round of introductions. As well as announcing their name, job title, and whatever other standard pieces of info you ask for, ask each person to introduce the items they’ve found as well, and why it meets the condition you gave before. You’ll get to hear some incredible tales that will provide a far better insight into each participant’s personality than the standard boring virtual event entertainment options!
