In this deeply metaphorical activity, teammates cast each other’s body parts (hands, feet) with cling film, then assemble them into a collective sculpture. Beyond the tactile creativity, it’s a lesson in vulnerability and interdependence—your palm literally supports another’s footprint in the final artwork. The silent revelation? A team’s strength lies not in uniformity, but in how oddly shaped pieces lock together perfectly.
How to Play:
1. Trust Casting: Pair up to mold body parts (non-head) with cling wrap
2. Collaborative Assembly: Combine all casts into one symbolic structure
3. Storytelling: Explain what each "body piece" represents in your team ecosystem
Experience:
1. Psychological Safety Gym-Consent-based touch builds unheard-of workplace trust.
2. Diversity in 3D-Your knee + their elbow = a sculpture of perfect imbalance.
3. Vulnerability Training-Being wrapped forces leaders to receive care.
4. Metaphor Literacy-Loose wrap=micromanagement, gaps=communication breakdowns.
5. Belonging Trophy-The final piece screams: We’re literally part of each other now.
These cling-film casts will decay, but the lesson won’t: True teamwork isn’t about polishing edges until we fit, but daring to show our jagged parts—and discovering they’re what hold us together.
