Bamboo Platform Challenge: Strengthening Teams Through Innovation and Teamwork
Teams take on the exciting challenge of constructing a bamboo platform strong enough to support their entire group. Equipped with bamboo poles, gloves, cutters, and rope, participants must collaborate to design and build a sturdy structure.
How It Works:
- Planning Phase: Teams brainstorm ideas, sketch designs, and assign roles.
- Construction Phase: Using the provided materials, teams bring their vision to life.
- Testing & Adjustments: Smart teams conduct weight tests and refine their structure for stability.
- The Final Challenge: All members must climb onto the platform—only the strongest design holds!
While the fastest team to build a successful platform wins, the real takeaway is the teamwork, problem-solving, and adaptability developed throughout the experience. A debrief session allows teams to reflect on strategies, communication, and lessons learned for future challenges in work and life.
