The Master of the Tasks event is a riotous, laughter-filled team-building experience that brings a fun twist to collaboration and problem-solving!

Drawing inspiration from popular TV game shows, it creates an unforgettable atmosphere full of humour, creativity, and a little bit of chaos.

Teamwork at its core, success in Master of the Tasks comes from working together.

Perfect for breaking down barriers and building camaraderie, Master of the Tasks is ideal for team-building events that want to focus on joy, collaboration, and positive shared moments.

In teams, participants will be given the task to design and create an amazing piece of art!

The final art work will be mounted as a story board or design together to create one entire piece of work.

This high-energy, fast paced event enables participants to discover their and their team mates creative and innovative potential whilst working together to create something symbolic and memorable!

Project Railway is a great exercise for introducing the challenge of managing projects that have an important implication and end result to a wider project outcome. It involves all of the delegates working in small sub teams to produce part of a larger construction.

Unlike most events, in “Stop The Clock” the teams make all the decisions on what activities they do and how long they spend doing them. They will be presented with up to 20 different opportunities to earn points within an overall time period. Activity options range from problem-solving to fun challenges. The faster and more efficiently your team work, the more they get done and the more points they earn.

Racing against the clock, it will not be possible to complete all of the activity options before the deadline. With that in mind, careful planning and a good strategy is the key to success.
