Purpose of the GameŽ

  • Place the participants in an unfamiliar realm of relationship and governance.  From this perspective they can gain clear understandings about their own habitual life patterns.

  • Establish an experience of intense competition in an atmosphere that demands honor, dignity, and integrity.

  • Provide circumstances in which individuals and teams display integrity when no one is watching, support when the going gets tough and rules don’t easily apply, and commitment when there is no certainty of success.

  • Create a situation in which participants become keenly aware of the vividness and value of life.

  • Promote the opportunity for participants to deal with loss and recovery.

  • Promote a deeper awareness of those places inside each participant where they want to stop or are unwilling to be uncomfortable.

  • Deepen the participants awareness of the total interplay of emotions with beliefs and physical responses.

  • Push “the envelope” of personal and team integrity by learning when it cracks and when it strengthens.
