Hot Air Balloon
The hot air balloon is a fun activity to facilitate a forward planning brainstorming session: team members are admiring the magnificent landscape unfolding beneath their feet, when suddenly a cliff appears on the horizon! Everyone has to react quickly: which weights should be dropped first? Which burners should be activated to gain height? In short, how can the team have the best possible trip ?
Suggestions and variations
The hot air balloon activity can also be used as part of continuing improvement work on your processes:
The group, which is represented by the balloon, talks about the strengths that push it (the wind) and the weaknesses that slow it down (the weights) from reaching its objectives.
