Today you're going to learn EXACTLY how to use The Money Game as an icebreaker for your team-building activities (step by step).
In fact, in this video, I'm going to show you a time when I used this as an icebreaker in one of my corporate team-building events.
With that, here's a quick overview of what's in the video:
Let’s be honest, a lot of people hate the icebreaker activities that come before a team-building event. And a lot of the reason is because the icebreaker games that are used have been overdone. So your team has played it before and they aren’t interested in doing it again.
However, many haven’t played The Money Game before. And even if they have, it’s a quick, simple, and fun activity that gets people connecting with those around them. That’s what you want. You want people to be laughing and engage in your activities. Otherwise you have simply wasted your time and theirs.
Icebreakers are important to events because they help the audience get comfortable in the setting they are in and with those around them. If the audience doesn’t know each other well, it’s a way to get them talking and remove the awkwardness of the situation. But for an icebreaker to be effective, it has to get the audience to engage, think, talk, and want to hear what’s coming next in the presentation.
Whether you are looking for icebreakers for adults or icebreakers for teens and children, this is an effective and fun team-building activity to use.
In short, this video will show you actionable ways to benefit from using The Money Game as an icebreaker in 2019.

http://www.MikeVeny.com In this new segment from Fresh Outlook news, Mike Veny shares his thoughts on the 2016 Oscar Academy Awards. This highly anticipated event of 2016 had so much controversy leading up to it.
The controversy surrounded the lack of black actors nominated for awards.
In Mike's opinion, comedian Chris Rock did the best he could to poke fun at the elephant in the room (the racial controversy), although some said he took it too far.
He also believes that Lady Gaga's performance was the highlight of the evening.
