News Release!

ACTIVISTS TAKE HOSTAGES

A fictitious animal rights extremist group known as the World Animal Freedom Front has taken 10 hostages from an experimental laboratory.

Your Team’s Mission
To secure the safe release of the hostages.

Your Team’s Performance
Your team will be scored on its performance in negotiating the release of the hostages. The better the team, the higher it scores, the harder the activists negotiate and the more the team learns. Two-way communication is established via a computer and printer, which acts as a fax. Team members quickly come to believe that the people they are dealing with are real. Deadlines are set and consequences are incurred for missing them, just like in real life. Multiple tasks are demanded of the team. Prioritizing and communication soon become issues, just like in real life. The similarities are endless; the learning points equally so.

LIBERATION is a dynamic new innovation in the world of team development. It is a computer-based simulation that allows a team to interact and negotiate with fictitious activists for the release of hostages. Each team has its own computer loaded with the LIBERATION software, so the training event can accommodate multiple teams simultaneously. As a team enters its information, the computer responds by printing a "fax" from the activists with new demands, information, and consequences. At the conclusion, the team is evaluated electronically by how it handled the negotiation.

See how your teammates work together…learn to appreciate each others’ contribution to the team.

A great idea for your next retreat or offsite meeting.
…and did we say FUN?

Sample Event Agenda
(Agenda can be designed for your event or training need)

LIBERATION can be run as a one- or two-day event, with actual computer run time from 6 to 48 hours. Teams are sent study materials to familiarize themselves with the hostage scenario, then assemble for team awareness and setup information. Then they begin the exercise, running continuously until completion. After the computer simulation is finished, there is a post-session discussion to analyze results and solidify the teambuilding points learned.

Sample 1½-Day Agenda:
Prior to Session - Distribute hostage scenario information.
Day 1 - 2-3 hours - Critical Elements for Teamwork and Team Strategy.
Day 2 - 6-8 hours - LIBERATION Experience (simulation runs until each team finishes).
1-2 hours - Post-Session Discussions, Analysis and Learning Points.
