Take on the role of an expedition leader in an emotionally gripping Virtual Summit of Mt. Everest. Manage resources, monitor conditions, and ultimately guide your remote team to the top and safely back down.

Following in the footsteps of some of the world’s most famous explorers and climbers, you will be confronted with difficult choices and complex decisions that could mean the difference between life and death for your teammates. How will you distribute your materials? Which path will you choose? How much risk are you willing to take? Who or what will get left behind?

In this remote team building activity, groups must make swift, yet intelligent decisions and successfully complete a series of challenges if they want to outwit the other teams and win.

Due to the complexity of the game and the number of variables involved, each team member must take on an individual role and effectively communicate their unique information to the group. After strategizing together, they must decide on how they will move up the mountain each day. A range of factors should be taken into consideration including client fitness levels, weather conditions, strategic routes to the summit, air pressure acclimatization, and use of oxygen. Teams must use it to decide on what their guide will need to carry – tents, oxygen, or clients. Clients gain points for their team as they move higher up the mountain peak, but if they do not take adequate supplies they risk dire consequences.

The team with the most points at the end is declared the winner!

Following this remote team building experience, participants use reflective observation to identify what occurred during the exercise. They are then invited to parallel these observations to real-life circumstances and in doing so participants are able to make permanent, effective changes in their behavior.
