"The
Mingle"®
The Mingle is a ready-made activity that can be used
as either an ice-breaker or a discussion starter. It
comes as a set of 20 cards. Each card has a unique question
designed specifically for the group you're working with
or the topic you're discussing. There are currently
four specific versions designed for:
• Groups - either just forming,
adding new members or needing to work together better
• Teams - a slightly deeper
look that fits well for intact teams
• Collaboration - for situations
where people need to find common ground and come together
• Sustainability - for situations
where people want to learn about and explore issues
of sustainability
• Coming Soon: Trust
– helping groups and individuals to understand
and develop trust.
As part of the activity, participants will talk one-on-one
with each other. This encourages people to get to know
one another or get better acquainted - make connections
- and learn about themselves, each other, or the topic
being discussed.
