The experience

The value of timing and cooperation in moving as a connected team to outpace another group

Caterpillar Bulldozer is a team building game that requires all participating players to work together in order to win the opposing team.

Group members will split into Teams. Teams are provided with a cloth roll and members are supposed to reach the end point without stepping out of the cloth.

What the team can practise

Synchronize movement

For moving as a connected team to outpace another group, agree a simple cue that helps teammates act at the same time.

Time the handoff

Pass the task only when the next participant is ready and knows what comes next.

Keep instructions short

Use clear, useful information that teammates can act on quickly.

Watch the whole group

Notice how each move affects the team's progress, not only an individual's result.

Reset after a miss

When timing slips, pause, exchange feedback and try the next attempt with an agreed adjustment.

Recognize coordinated progress

Point out the moments when one person's action made the next person's contribution easier.

Beyond the activity

What teams can take from the Caterpillar Bulldozer session

As teammates coordinate moving as a connected team to outpace another group, one person's timing affects what another person can do next. The task gives the group a practical way to notice how brief instructions, reliable handoffs and small corrections influence the overall result.

In the workplace, the same pattern appears when tasks pass between roles. Ask where a team could make dependencies clearer, give earlier feedback or pause briefly to reset its shared plan.
