This is one of our communication exercises where the team will positively gossip about each other.

This exercise is most suitable to do at the end of the day. This will allow the participants to look back and positively gossip about each other based on what happened that day during the training.

You can also do this exercise at any other time during the training. Just make sure the team is well acquainted with each other.

You can apply variations to this one of our Communication Exercises:

1. When forming the groups you can put together participants that normally don’t get along with each other. In this exercise they will be kind of forced to be positive about one another.
2. Instead of pairing up the participants you can also do this exercise with the whole group at the same time. For example, you point at someone in the circle and then the rest has to say something positive about that person. The format stays the same. When someone says something positive the next person begins his sentence with “Yes and…”
3. You can mention at the start of the day that you will do this exercise at the end of the training. This will make the participants more aware of positive traits of other people which will make the exercise more effective and the group atmosphere throughout the day even more positive.
