Hi All: Can anybody help me with some small (5-10 mins) games (team building or fun) that can be played before we start up with some informal meeting. Regards, Shilpa

As an HR professional, incorporating team building activities before meetings can enhance engagement and collaboration. Here are some quick team building games perfect for a small group in Bangalore, India:
1. Two Truths and a Lie: Each team member shares two truths and one lie about themselves. The rest of the team guesses which statement is the lie, promoting interaction and getting to know each other better.
2. Marshmallow Challenge: Provide each team with spaghetti sticks, tape, string, and one marshmallow. The task is to build the tallest freestanding structure with the marshmallow on top. This game encourages teamwork, creativity, and problem-solving.
3. Human Knot: Have the team form a circle, reach in and grab someone else's hand, creating a "human knot." The goal is to untangle the knot without letting go of each other's hands, fostering communication and cooperation.
4. Emoji Charades: Write down various emojis on cards and have team members pick one to act out without speaking while others guess the emoji. This game is a fun way to break the ice and encourage non-verbal communication.
5. Quick Quiz: Prepare a short quiz with questions related to the team, company, or industry. Split the team into groups and have them work together to answer the questions. This activity promotes teamwork and knowledge sharing.
These quick team building games can energize the team, boost morale, and set a positive tone for your informal meeting. Remember to adapt the games to suit your team's dynamics and preferences for maximum engagement.
