02 Friends Indeed

This icebreaker activity involves having participants stand in a circle around their name cards. One person stands in the middle and calls out a statement that applies to them, such as "friends who like ice cream". Those who the statement applies to must find a new spot in the circle. The odd person out then takes a turn in the middle calling out a statement. The goal is to get participants moving around and introduced without standing next to those immediately on their left or right.

Icebreaker Two: Friends Indeed

PURPOSE

To get participants moving around and introduced to each other.

MATERIALS REQUIRED

 Name card for each person

 Markers

PREPARATION

Have participants fill out their name card. Then, ask participants to stand in a circle, shoulder to
shoulder. They should place their name card at their feet. Then they can take a step back. You as the
facilitator should take the place in the center of the circle.

ACTIVITY

Explain that there is one less place than people in the group, as you are in the middle and will be
participating. You will call out a statement that applies to you, and anyone to whom that statement
applies must find another place in the circle.

Examples:

 Friends who have cats at home

 Friends who are wearing blue

 Friends who don’t like ice cream

The odd person out must stand in the center and make a statement.

The rules:

 You cannot move immediately to your left or right, or back to your place.

 Let’s be adults: no kicking, punching, body-checking, etc.

Play a few rounds until everyone has had a chance to move around.

Icebreaker: Interview
PURPOSE
To help participants get to know each other
MATERIALS REQUIRED

Paper and pens for note taking by participants

PREPARATION

None

ACTIVITY

Tell participants they will be interviewing a fellow course participant as a way to help the group get to
know each other.

Divide the large group into pairs.

Allow five minutes for each person to interview his or her partner. Ask each individual to be prepared to
share two or three facts or events to help us learn more about the partner. When the group reconvenes,
each person introduces his or her interviewee to the rest of the group. (Because this icebreaker is done
interview style, it helps to set the stage for several of the change management modules in this course.)
