Northgate says...
"Teams should spend the first 5-10 minutes working out exactly what the task is, how best to go about it and sharing some vital information - but most teams don't! Instead, they jump straight in and it's a case of 'more speed, less accuracy'. As well, the best teams tend to have a strong coordinator who brings it all together, accurately, on time and in good spirit."
- Tests teams' ability to define a task
- Identifies relevant team roles
- Stresses need for attention to detail
- Emphasises need for good time management
- Demonstrates how to break tasks into manageable parts – and delegate
Ideally suited to:
Assessing a range of teamwork skills in a very short space of time. Suitable at all levels for demonstrating the need for a thought-out process, clear communication and paying attention to detail. One slip and it all goes horribly wrong!
Team members each have different Briefs which they cannot show to each other. The clock is ticking and teams have exactly 30 minutes to complete the task. They’ve got everything they need but information is spread across several team members’ Briefs – so good team communication is vital.
Each Brief also contains a hint of a possible role for each team member. But time is tight! Someone needs to keep an eye on the time and there needs to be a good coordinator, a good finisher and some capable team members. Quality of work and attention to detail are vital.
- Divide participants into teams and explain the nature of the task.
- Issue Briefing Materials and resources to each person.
- Write the current time on the flipchart or whiteboard and tell the teams to start.
- Observe the teams at work.
- Stop the activity after exactly 30 minutes and check who has completed the task successfully.
- Lead a Debrief on the learning points.

Mike Ode, Director, Potential Unearthed 'Deadline 30 Minutes!' is a corker of an activity! It can be used in many different ways. We used it to highlight the consequences of a lack of planning, strategy and communication.

Donna Craig, Learning & Development Consultant, UK & Ireland, DFDS I used 'Deadline 30 Minutes!' at a graduate assessment centre and it went very well and I really like the activity. It's a good, interactive activity which ensures involvement from all in the group.

Danielle Case, Learning & Development Advisor, Corona Energy 'Deadline 30 Minutes!' is a great activity and our managers thoroughly enjoyed it. It was great to see the different management styles and approaches in action - and it was something different for our managers as they haven't experienced anything like this type of training before. Great fun!
