HR Game Communication and Coordination

The document describes a survival simulation exercise for 6 teams of 6 members each. Each team finds themselves stranded in a desert after an emergency plane landing with rescue 2 days away. The plane contains 10 necessary survival items but the team can only take 5. Each member individually ranks the top 5 items, then the team must come to a consensus on a collective priority list. Scoring is based on differences between individual and team lists, with lower scores indicating less difference between priorities chosen individually and collectively.
