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.

Beyond the activity
What teams can take from the Huff and Puff session
As teammates coordinate blowing objects across a course as a relay team, 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.
