ABOUT<strong>JET</strong><br />

30 ICEBREAKERS AND<br />

STARTERS<br />

30<br />

MIN<br />

Creating the right atmosphere at the start of a training session and breaking the<br />

ice is imperative to a successful session. We have 30 ways to guarantee success! We<br />

create a warm atmosphere and get participants interacting with ice breakers, that<br />

range from simply way of introducing everyone to each other, to more challenging<br />

activities that can introduce the theme of the meeting!<br />

LEARNING OBJECTIVES<br />

In 2002, we had an idea. Was there a place<br />

in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA)<br />

for a company that helped people learn to<br />

work together more effectively and become<br />

inspirational leaders? One that cajoled them<br />

out of their comfort zones and encouraged<br />

them to think freely, work collaboratively<br />

and make empowered decisions?<br />

We identified the need! And with the combination<br />

of our diverse backgrounds, crosscultural<br />

experience, mother/son generational<br />

awareness and huge amounts of<br />

shared passion, <strong>JET</strong> was born. From its inception,<br />

we have created experiential programs<br />

that give people hands-on learning<br />

experiences, help them discover themselves<br />

and each other, engage in open, honest,<br />

transparent communication and work<br />

effectively as a team.<br />

We design programs for people who come<br />

up with big ideas. And people who make<br />

them happen. For people who lead and for<br />

those that follow their leadership. We design<br />

these programs with a purpose that is<br />

simple, but powerful: improve every member<br />

of a team, give insight into team intelligence<br />

and you ultimately improve the organization<br />

itself.<br />

Many years later, with a much bigger team,<br />

we are still helping people to grow and succeed.<br />

We ask them to challenge the assumptions<br />

and habits they’ve nurtured through<br />

the years and work on bringing the human<br />

being back into business.<br />

Every day, we build teams, coach executives,<br />

enhance positivity, create leaders and make<br />

a difference. We enjoy earning our name: <strong>JET</strong>.<br />

AIRBORNE!<br />

THE FLIGHT!<br />

1<br />

H<br />

This activity will give you a clear picture<br />

of participants’ problem-solving and team<br />

organisational skills. Teams coordinate an<br />

air-drop of emergency supplies. Eight crates<br />

need to be constructed, packed, loaded and<br />

parachuted in but fuel is short so choice of<br />

route and drop sequence is critical! Guaranteed<br />

to be a great hit with delegates!<br />

H<br />

Demonstrates how teams react under pressure.<br />

Based on a real incident with a passenger<br />

airline, this activity provides an opportunity<br />

for teams to practice logical thinking and decision-making<br />

under pressure. At 15,000ft above<br />

the African desert with a timebase relentlessly<br />

announcing the passing minutes and passenger<br />

safety paramount, this is no time for dithering!<br />

THE WORLD’S<br />

GREATEST ENGINEER!<br />

A teamwork activity focusing on problem<br />

solving, planning and practical<br />

skills. Team members will have different<br />

skills to bring to the task. They have<br />

to construct a model bridge that a cart<br />

(supplied) can travel over safely. To get<br />

the necessary resources teams need to<br />

solve a number of problems. Points are<br />

scored for a bridge’s height, length and<br />

THE ULTIMATE<br />

TOWER!<br />

A BESTSELLER!<br />

1<br />

H<br />

A great activity to put teams under stress<br />

and see how they cope. It begins with uncertainty<br />

and if the teams make assumptions<br />

then it can all go pear-shaped. It’s all<br />

too easy to rush into a job without thinking<br />

about what is required.<br />

LEARNING OBJECTIVES<br />

THE SUNKEN TREASURE!<br />

A real teamwork challenge - fun, fast-paced,<br />

interactive and revealing! Teams need to<br />

solve a variety of problems and the information<br />

to do this is spread amongst them. They<br />

need to work effectively together to share<br />

data and recover the sunken treasure. A powerful<br />

activity for demonstrating the positive<br />

energy generated by high-performing teams.<br />

LEARNING OBJECTIVES<br />

THE CATAPULT ATTACK!<br />

Fun team activity that encompasses teamwork,<br />

planning, strategy, risk analysis - and<br />

an element of luck! Up to three teams plan<br />

to attack a castle with a trebuchet (or siege<br />

catapult) which they must first construct and<br />

test. The fourth team constructs a castle and<br />

works out a plan to disrupt the attackers by<br />

hiding archers in nearby woods. Carefully<br />

made plans are put to the test but as in real<br />

life things don’t always turn out as expected.<br />

THE SOUTH POLE<br />

CHALLENGE<br />

3 +<br />

H<br />

A demanding but realistic activity that explores all the key management<br />

skills in planning a complex project - you’ll see teamwork in<br />

action, leadership issues, motivation at work, planning issues, time<br />

management, brainstorming, questioning, decision-making and presentation<br />

skills. The task? To plan an expedition to the South Pole.<br />

LEARNING OBJECTIVES<br />

CO-OPERATIVE<br />

TEAMWORK<br />

GRAVITY!<br />

LINKED BY INTERCOM!<br />

1<br />

H<br />

Fun teamwork activity highlighting the need<br />

for good communication skills and cooperation.<br />

Three teams work separately to construct<br />

one section each of a three-part runway to allow<br />

a ping pong ball to travel from one end to<br />

the other by gravity alone. But first they must<br />

answer a series of questions to obtain the necessary<br />

building resources. Teams have to work<br />

together to ensure a smooth run!<br />

1<br />

H<br />

Two teams are linked by intercom. Their problem<br />

is to get batches of eggs from Point A to<br />

Point B in Tanta. Unfortunately eggs break in<br />

transit especially over rough tracks (less breakages<br />

on the road!). Teams can help each other<br />

but they need good teamwork and communication<br />

skills. If you have four teams, two communicate<br />

by the intercom and two in writing. Who<br />

will perform best?<br />

THINK STRATEGY<br />

1.5<br />

H<br />

A case study to test business analysis skills. Also provides<br />

an opportunity to practice presentation skills. In the role of<br />

consultants teams use SWOT analysis to review a company<br />

that manufactures rubber dinghies. Then they choose one<br />

of six given strategies for the way forward - and take turns to<br />

explain their reasoning.<br />

LEARNING OBJECTIVES<br />

THE GREAT MOON ESCAPE<br />

A BESTSELLER!<br />

Great exercise to develop competent teams and<br />

engender an environment of cooperation. Teams<br />

of lunar astronauts have various tasks to complete<br />

before blasting off from the moon. But at the last<br />

minute Houston drops the news of a faulty filter.<br />

Teams must jointly construct a new one which has<br />

to be tested before return to Earth is possible. Can<br />

teams work together to help each other escape<br />

being marooned in space?<br />

1.5<br />

H<br />

THE ITALIAN JOB<br />

A fun activity to demonstrate the benefits of collaborative<br />

working as teams jointly solve problems<br />

to achieve a win-win outcome. There has been an<br />

audacious heist in London. Teams are one of four<br />

police divisions out to catch the villains. By sharing<br />

the load they have a chance of solving this crime.<br />

Individual teams won’t take all the glory but they<br />

won’t take any at all if they can’t work together!<br />

MANAGING CHANGE<br />

3-4<br />

H<br />

THE LEISURE PROJECT<br />

A BESTSELLER!<br />

Develops key business skills in a fun and exciting business simulation.<br />

Teams bid for one of four hotels and then study the accounts of their chosen<br />

hotel. It’s not good news! But they have six ‘quarters’ to turn the business<br />

round by making key decisions on room price, staffing, wages, marketing<br />

and service quality. At the same time they must deal with various<br />

challenges. Highest profit wins!<br />

LEARNING OBJECTIVES<br />

1.5<br />

H<br />

Announcing change as a fait accompli and expecting<br />

staff to accept everything wholeheartedly and without<br />

question may not be the best approach.<br />

Two teams represent separate courier companies who<br />

have just merged. The third team represent manager<br />

who realize that the merger has thrown up some problems<br />

and so change is required. While working on their<br />

delivers teams 1 and 2 are observed by team 3. Team<br />

3 discuss what they have noticed about the system<br />

(which is not ideal) and decide what change should<br />

be made. They then stop the teams to present an improved<br />

method to the workers and implement changes<br />

(including making two people redundant) the way they<br />

do it can make all the difference do they include the<br />

teams in the process or do they simply TELL them? Will<br />

it end in mutual acceptance or outright hostility? Hold<br />

on to your hat! Uniquely allows participants to experience<br />

the change process and report on their feelings<br />

– and opens up into a wider discussion on a range of<br />

issues around managing change.<br />

PIZZERIA<br />

A BESTSELLER!<br />

MR IAMCLEVER AND<br />

MISS KNOWITALL<br />

3-4<br />

H<br />

Ideal to test business acumen and develop teamwork skills. Teams compete<br />

to run the most profitable pizza takeaway in the mythical European city of<br />

Villeburg. Decisions on pricing, product quality, staffing, market research, advertising<br />

as well as a poster and pizza box design determines who wins. And<br />

teams can expand the business by opening longer hours and introducing<br />

motorcycle deliveries!<br />

THE CLUB HOUSE<br />

3-4<br />

H<br />

A great activity to test and develop key business skills. As new owners of<br />

an ailing sport and leisure club, teams learn about its falling membership,<br />

the state of the facilities, the weak management, staff grumbles and declining<br />

profits. Something needs doing - and quickly! Before considering<br />

what to do they study customer feedback. Should they add new facilities<br />

such as tennis courts, squash courts or golf course? But it all needs capital<br />

investment. Time to see the Bank Manager.<br />

LEARNING OBJECTIVES<br />

33<br />

to assess the current state of a business<br />

33<br />

to realise the value of listening to customers and their needs<br />

33<br />

REACHING CONSENSUS!<br />

BUILDING BLOCKS<br />

4-5<br />

H<br />

MAKE A FORTUNE!<br />

Sophisticated business simulation that will stretch the very best in commercial<br />

acumen and general management. Teams run a hi-tech business<br />

providing handsets for online access to the latest sport, health and diet<br />

news. They need to evaluate their business, review variables such as prices,<br />

stock, staff pay, marketing and then plan their strategy as a team to<br />

outstrip competitors (the other teams). With a few calculated risks they<br />

could, very quickly, make a fortune! On the other hand...<br />

1<br />

H<br />

A chance to practice basic negotiation skills.<br />

Negotiation needs forward planning and the<br />

setting up of fall back positions. Teams are able<br />

to practice planning a flexible approach where<br />

they can compromise and give and take in order<br />

to reach a win win outcome. Working with<br />

others, rather than against them in an adversarial<br />

way, often leads to success.<br />

LEARNING OBJECTIVES<br />

1<br />

H<br />

One of <strong>JET</strong> classic negotiation exercises<br />

which tests teams ability to work together.<br />

Teams assemble a model of Stonehenge<br />

from wooden blocks but they must buy or<br />

swap blocks with other teams or the facilitator<br />

in order to do so, with limited cash. A fun<br />

exercise which enables participants to practice<br />

their negotiation and influencing skills.<br />

A DIFFERENT STRATEGY<br />

An ideal introduction to negotiation skills, this activity allows participants to prepare for and<br />

then conduct a challenging negotiation which tests and develops negotiating strategies. Set<br />

in a retail context, buyers are seeking to purchase a product that has done well in the past but<br />

they have specific needs in terms of quantities and colours. Sellers are keen to sell but they<br />

have old stock they would like to shift first and the colour match is not ideal. How can they<br />

each get what they want, or close to it?<br />

LEARNING OBJECTIVES<br />

30-50<br />

MIN<br />

QUATTRO!<br />

Perfect for introducing a topic, stimulating in-depth<br />

discussions, assessing team knowledge and drawing up<br />

Action Points.<br />

There are four independent titles in the series. Each title<br />

comprises three sets of cards that teams work through.<br />

33<br />

True/False cards<br />

33<br />

to let teams draw up fall-back positions<br />

33<br />

to stress the need for teams to assess their negotiating partners<br />

33<br />

to emphasise the need for negotiations to be win win not win lose<br />

Teams discuss the cards and decide on the True/False<br />

cards. They make a note of their responses and these are<br />

discussed at the Debrief.<br />

A great introduction to these four topics:<br />

2<br />

H<br />

THE KEY TO LEADERSHIP<br />

Identifies key leadership qualities and exposes<br />

some leadership myths. Teams select attributes<br />

they think describe a good leader. The choices are<br />

then evaluated. True leadership is about someone<br />

being empowered to stand up and suggest a new<br />

way forward. Many of the attributes teams choose<br />

are in fact about management not leadership.<br />

What is the difference?<br />

LEARNING OBJECTIVES<br />

33<br />

to challenge participants ideas about<br />

leadership<br />

33<br />

to show the ‘traits’ approach is flawed<br />

33<br />

to illustrate the differences between a<br />

manager and a leader<br />

33<br />

to demolish some leadership myths<br />

33<br />

to champion the empowerment of staff<br />

and ‘thought leaders’<br />

THE EMERGING LEADER<br />

A leadership and teamwork activity that can<br />

be used to demonstrate the skills required by<br />

a nominated leader and to assess leadership<br />

in action and/or to observe who emerges as a<br />

leader (if anyone). Provokes a lively discussion<br />

about the qualities of an effective leader.<br />

LEARNING OBJECTIVES<br />

33<br />

to identify the attributes of a good leader<br />

33<br />

to see how a leader briefs and controls a<br />

INNOVATE<br />

AND CHANGE<br />

Its commonly known that people in general react badly to<br />

change. They are often fearful of how it will affect them and<br />

their job. However change is not only inevitable but leads<br />

to progress. Innovative organisations are among the most<br />

successful. In this activity teams decide what innovations<br />

a business needs and then see the results of their actions.<br />

LEARNING OBJECTIVES<br />

1.5<br />

H<br />

THE FACTORY!<br />

A great introduction to key management skills,<br />

where participants experience first-hand what<br />

can go wrong under poor management. Participants<br />

represent Managers, Supervisors and<br />

Production Staff. When management receive<br />

a request for a couple of samples to be made<br />

up they brief the Supervisors and the Supervisors<br />

in turn brief the Production Staff. The lines<br />

of communication are short, the task simple,<br />

the deadline adequate - and yet the problems<br />

multiply exponentially!<br />

1.5<br />

H<br />

THE BLAMING GAME!<br />

Encourages staff to take responsibility for their<br />

actions and avoid the “blame game” when<br />

things don’t go to plan. High-performing<br />

teams don’t make it by accident. They know<br />

their key result areas, have stringent goals and<br />

are willing to take responsibility. This activity<br />

exposes all the excuses and paves the way for<br />

greater accountability and performance improvement<br />

at work.<br />

33<br />

to allow participants to assess an existing business<br />

33<br />

to give participants the opportunity to suggest<br />

possible changes<br />

33<br />

33<br />

to demonstrate the positive outcomes of change<br />

33<br />

to give participants a framework and the confidence<br />

to look at themselves and their systems with a view<br />

to innovation.<br />

LEARNING OBJECTIVES<br />

33<br />

to highlight problems of communication<br />

at work<br />

33<br />

to stress the need for managers to be<br />

proactive<br />

33<br />

to focus on the skills of delegation and<br />

monitoring<br />

33<br />

to test managers ability to get things<br />

done through others<br />

33<br />

to remind managers to plan for deadlines<br />

LEARNING OBJECTIVES<br />

33<br />

to define what accountability is all about<br />

33<br />

and positive approach<br />

33<br />

THE OLYMPIC TEAM<br />

VALUES AND ETHICS<br />

1<br />

H<br />

Sir David Brailsford introduced the concept<br />

of marginal gains when training the British<br />

Olympic cycling teams. The idea can be applied<br />

to staff in the workplace where just<br />

small changes in behaviours and attitude<br />

can lead to big steps in improved performance.<br />

Using anonymous responses gets<br />

to the heart of where improvements can<br />

be made.<br />

1<br />

H<br />

Explores the importance of values and ethics<br />

in the workplace. As we are constantly<br />

reminded, integrity within any organisation<br />

is more important than ever. Using an<br />

anonymous recording system participants<br />

have the opportunity to demonstrate their<br />

own personal and business values and<br />

reach consensus on what should be expected.<br />

COACHING SKILLS<br />

COACHING & MENTORING<br />

3 +<br />

H<br />

A basic introduction to coaching skills. Teams<br />

learn not to be judgemental, that you must<br />

avoid TELLING others what to do and that the<br />

coach is not the expert but more of a guide<br />

and counsellor who needs to be able to listen,<br />

empathise and encourage.<br />

LEARNING OBJECTIVES<br />

33<br />

to understand the basic skills of coaching<br />

33<br />

to see the importance of establishing<br />

rapport<br />

33<br />

to realise that coaching is a two-way<br />

process to understand the need to<br />

encourage people to find their own<br />

solutions<br />

33<br />

to realise that a coach should ASK and<br />

not TELL<br />

3 +<br />

H<br />

This hands-on exercise provides a fun, nonthreatening<br />

environment in which to develop<br />

coaching skills. Good coaching is not easy - the<br />

coach needs an ability to listen, to demonstrate<br />

active listening, to show empathy, to be able<br />

to see things from another’s point of view as<br />

well as not being judgmental, all-knowing or<br />

the ‘expert’. To many people, coaching does not<br />

come naturally, but it’s easier once you know<br />

how!<br />

LEARNING OBJECTIVES<br />

33<br />

to illustrate some basic coaching skills<br />

33<br />

to stress the role of the coach as guide<br />

and mentor<br />

33<br />

questioning and encouraging to identify<br />

the need for empathy<br />

33<br />

to point out that coaching is not about<br />

telling or being judgemental<br />

THE TRAVEL COMPANY<br />

A BESTSELLER!<br />

Ideal for putting team decision-making skills - and customer care<br />

values -to the test. Teams represent the senior management of a<br />

successful travel company, but their Borneo Adventure group hits<br />

a series of problems. Teams need to evaluate each situation and<br />

make the right decisions to ensure customer morale is maintained<br />

without affecting profits.<br />

RESOLUTION<br />

Effective organisations set up ways of dealing with inevitable conflicts<br />

at work before they escalate out of hand. This pack allows<br />

participants to focus on 10 examples of conflict and decide how<br />

they should be dealt with. Prevention is better than cure!<br />

1<br />

H<br />

New managers are often promoted because of their<br />

technical ability but as a manager a whole new set<br />

of skills is required. Chief among these is the ability<br />

to interact with, oversee and lead staff. This activity<br />

presents managers with 10 ‘people’ problems and assesses<br />

how well they deal with them.<br />

LEARNING OBJECTIVES<br />

COMMUNICATION IS KEY!<br />

Highlights the basic rules for ensuring good communications at work - by<br />

email and through face-to-face meetings. We all know that email can lead<br />

to misunderstandings and that face-to-face can be useful but needs an<br />

agenda and good planning. Provides an opportunity for participants to<br />

demonstrate just how well they can communicate...or not!<br />

1.5<br />

H<br />

WHAT’S YOUR OBJECTIVE?<br />

Packed with learning and fun, this activity powerfully demonstrates the importance<br />

of setting realistic targets and completing work on time and in<br />

line with the main objective. Teams prioritise a number of tasks to decide<br />

which they will handle according to SMART objectives (Specific, Measurable,<br />

Attainable, Relevant, Timely). There are more than they can cope with<br />

so how will they decide which to do - and will they choose the right ones?<br />

“Without a doubt, this has been one of the best team building activities we took part of. We were<br />

challenged both mentally and physically and we had a great time doing it. <strong>JET</strong> delivered on not only<br />

matching our expectations, but surpassing them. We will surely be working with them again in the future.<br />

“ Thanks again guys!<br />

Helmy Abdel Rahim Area Talent Executive, North Africa British American Tobacco, Egypt<br />

Our experience with you was just perfect on so many levels. First, the team building idea itself and how it<br />

meets the brief we provided you with. It was inspiring, different and original. You managed to get everyone<br />

put on their creative hats.<br />

Then, the way you got everyone enthusiastic and excited about the fashion show team building was just<br />

full of positive energy which led to a fun memorable night that everyone enjoyed.<br />

Finally, your impact just pushed all team members to be as innovative and different as possible which<br />

made the competition much more entertaining<br />

Marwa Gomaa, Communications Director, Tetra pak Group<br />

This is the 4th team building event we do with <strong>JET</strong>, and the question we ask ourselves every year, “will they<br />

be able to top that great team building event?”, and the answer always is YES !!! Although we had a great<br />

great experience last year in Gouna, and although we spent sometime in the planning for this years event,<br />

<strong>JET</strong> for sure did manage to top last years event, and provide us with a great event this year. The exercise<br />

was not only creative and challenging and spot on to our field, which is centered around creativity, but it<br />

was absolutely fun for every single team member, and managed to let everyone off guard, and into a free<br />

creative frame of mind, that had no inhibitions or restrictions, which was obvious.<br />

Again <strong>JET</strong>, thank you for a great experience, and for an event that brought us all closer.<br />

Lina Fateen, General Manager, FP7<br />

We would like to show our appreciation to everyone at Jupiter Eclipse Group who made our team building<br />

event through the period from December 12 to December 18, 2013 so enjoyable and beneficial.<br />

Our main aim was to encourage teambuilding and for staff to get to know each other. This was definitely<br />

achieved. The feedback from the participants was fabulous. Everybody really enjoyed and got a benefit<br />

from the True Color Assessment. Moreover, everybody is happy with the Treasure Hunt Game. During this<br />

game, we focused on how the game paralleled our business and how much better the results could be if<br />

we collaborated better as an organization.<br />

Also I would like to take the opportunity to flag how much we appreciate Julie Ann’s great efforts on the<br />

coaching sessions. Her technical expertise is the key of the coaching success.<br />

Once again thank you for all your help and we would have no hesitations in referring you to other<br />

companies.<br />

My Best wishes for 2014.<br />
