Missing Manager Escape Room Exercise
This exercise is designed to challenge teams to quickly identify roles to take in solving multiple, ill-defined problems and coordinating the results to solve the larger puzzle under time constraints. By modeling it after the now popular escape room games, people are engaged in solving the room and the experienced problems or successes in working together are quickly exposed. This exercise has been run with leadership fellows from an MBA program and undergraduates in an upper level elective. Since only aspects of the escape room will be used, a standard classroom with computer, projector, and internet access are needed.
