I am going to be giving a presentation in the New Year and am looking for some tried and tested / novel ice breakers.

Scenario is 20 hotel managers and deputies on the company 4 day annual conference and I have been asked to do the first 2 days to include general health and safety and food safety.

I have met all the managers once but they have not all met each other. I have a couple of ideas but am looking for something novel, along with some ideas for break out sessions.

Whenever I have done these meetings I have always asked each delegate to introduce themselves and give one fact about themselves that no one else in the room would know. eg. "I won a gold medal for wheelbarrow racing in 1956"

It has always stood me in good stead over the years and it can also give you some hints as to how you can adapt the presentation to the audience.

How about splitting them into groups and asking them to give up to 4 @ Safety Hazards from A-Z or slightly easier 4 @ Health Hazards from A-Z.

PM me if you want a model answer.
