In Spiral Journal, participants reflect calmly on challenges or opportunities by drawing a spiral and responding to four open-ended prompts. This structure focuses thoughts and unleashes creative ideas, creating a comfortable space for quieter people to contribute.
When shared, these responses reveal patterns and potential new directions for our work. Spiral Journal enacts LS Principle #5, Practice Self-Discovery Within a Group.
A short solo walk outdoors in which each participant finds an object to symbolise their response to a question. Simple to facilitate, quietly powerful in what it surfaces. Works as a check-in, a central reflective activity, or a closing exercise for surfacing takeaways.
A timed estimation game that reveals why accurate estimation is so hard, and why asking the right questions matters.
Players are asked to estimate how many iterations they need to connect a given number of dots.
The task looks trivially simple, but there is hidden complexity: Time pressure, total number of dots, lines obscuring numbers. This makes it harder than anyone expects. The gap between "this is ieasy" and "it was actually hard" is the lesson.
Use it when stakeholders wonder why forecasts keep missing, or when you want to shift the conversation from "why can't you estimate better?" to "how can we change the way we work to make more accurate forecasts?"
🌐 Online A ready-to-run digital version of this game is available at https://facilitatorkit.co/connect-the-dots-online. The facilitator creates a session and shares a link — participants join in their browser and play on their own device. The game generates burndown charts automatically after each round.
