Real Solution to Problems
A group of employees was working in a software company. It was a
team of 30 employees. This was a young, energetic and dynamic team with keen
enthusiasm and desire to learn and grow. The management decided to teach the
employees about finding real solution to the problems.
The team was called to play a game in a banquet hall. The group
was quite surprised as they were called for playing game. All reached the venue
holding various thoughts. As they entered the hall, they found the hall
decorated beautifully with colourful decorative papers and balloons all over
the place. It was more like a kid’s play area, than a corporate meeting
hall.
Everyone was surprised and gazed at each other. Also, there was a
huge box of balloons placed at the centre of the hall.
The team leader asked everyone to pick a balloon from the box
and asked them to blow it. Every one happily picked a balloon and blew
it.
Then the team leader asked them to write their names on their
balloon, carefully so that the balloons didn’t blow up. All tried to write
their names on the balloons, but not everyone was successful. A few balloons
blew up due to pressure and they were given another chance to use another
balloon.
Those who failed to mark their names even after the second
chance were ruled out of the game. After the second chance, 25 employees were
qualified for the next level. All the balloons were collected and then put into
a room.
The team leader announced the employees to go to the room and
pick the same balloon that had his name on it. Also, he told them that no
balloon should blow up and warned them to be very careful!
All 25 employees reached the room, where the balloons carrying
their names were thrown here and there. They were searching for the respective
balloons carrying their names. While they were in a rush to find the respective
balloons, they tried not to burst the balloons. It was almost 15 minutes and no
one was able to find the balloon carrying his own name.
The team was told that the second level of the game was over.
Now it is the third and final level. They asked the employees to
pick any balloon in the room and give it to the person named on the balloon.
Within a couple of minutes all balloons reached the hands of the respective
employee and everyone reached the hall.
