Running the game

This activity is less of a game and more of a discussion. Similar to the questions you were asked as you started Leadership Heights, these questions are meant to help you dive deeper into who you are and who your teammates are.

Participants should select a question and spend 1 minute discussing it with a partner.
Once they have finished answering the question, making sure each person has gotten a turn, they should switch partners and select a second question.
Repeat this process until you have covered 4 or 5 questions, taking approximately 8 minutes.

Debrief

The following debrief questions are meant to give you an opportunity to discuss with your patrol mates and reflect on the game. You can have one leader ask the discussion questions or you could take turns asking the questions, making sure everyone’s voice is heard.
