Life Boxes is a short simple icebreaker which is designed to reflect the personality traits of the drawer. The participants are given extremely easy instructions on what to do, just fill in what you wish for each box! i.e. the first thing that comes into your head. There is no right or wrong answer, so the participants will be able to enjoy it rather than feel pressured. When the drawings are complete the Fire Events team will interpret the meanings of the drawings and attempt to explain why they think people drew what they did. You may be surprised at some of the outcomes of Life Boxes.

The short activity allows the participants to realise that we are all different and that we have different perceptions and views of the world around us. These differences between the participants are easily linked to job roles and personality traits and so allow this task to be a great first step to understanding our teams and the interactions between team members.
