The experience
A team investigation shaped by finding objects or clues through a shared search
Scavenger hunts have always been a great way to get people interacting and collaborating. Scavenger Hunt is to bring team together around a common goal, stretch their creative and problem solving minds and have fun bring together all the items on their list.
The hunt will begin when teams are issued with their “Hunting Guide”. This will tell them where they need to be and when. It will also outline all the challenges they need to complete and being a points based program, teams will be rewarded based on their success.
What the team can practise
Check assumptions
Compare each hunch with the evidence instead of letting the first confident answer dominate.
Connect the details
Keep track of how a new clue changes the team's understanding of the larger problem.
Choose a useful lead
Discuss which question or route is most likely to move Scavenger Hunt forward.
Manage the clock
Balance careful reasoning with the time available, and agree when to leave a dead end.
Bring every voice in
Invite observations from across the group; a small detail may change the whole interpretation.

Beyond the activity
What teams can take from the Scavenger Hunt session
Working through finding objects or clues through a shared search shows how a team handles incomplete information. The facilitator can help participants notice whose observations were heard, how the group tested assumptions and when it chose to change direction.
Relate the experience to project decisions: bring evidence together, invite a different interpretation and make the reason for the next choice clear to the people who must act on it.
