• Maintain Engagement: Keeps everyone actively listening, whether they’re participating or waiting for their turn.

• Promote Presence, Energy, and Immediate Focus: Quickly naming items forces participants to focus on the present moment, making it ideal for shifting gears at the start of a meeting or after a break.

• Reinforce “No Bad Ideas”: Celebrating quick, even off-the-wall responses underscores the importance of creative spontaneity—useful in brainstorming sessions or innovative thinking.

• Connecting Teams: Group celebration fosters a sense of shared fun and participation.

1. Choose the First Player & Category

• Example categories: “Colors,” “Types of Bread,” or even PwC-related prompts like “Client Industries.”
• Emphasize speed over accuracy—the player must name 3 items as quickly as possible.

2. Celebrate the Response

• The group shouts “QUICK! QUICK! QUICK!” once three items are named.
• No Wrong Answers—absurd or inventive is encouraged.

3. Pass the Turn

• The player who just named three items picks the next person.
• That person receives a new category and does the same.

4. Continue Until All Have Played

• Keep the momentum high.
• In larger groups, active listening is key: non-participants stay engaged to cheer, respond, or give categories.

• How did focusing on speed and creativity during the game help you approach problem-solving or brainstorming differently in your work tasks or team collaborations?

• In what ways can you apply the energy and quick thinking from this exercise to stay engaged and focused during meetings or client interactions at PwC?
