Classic, competitive teamwork activity - the ideal vehicle for assessing team competencies. A fantastic value pack!
You’re after a chest of gold. Your team starts with four briefs. At first sight they look like four copies of the same brief but they aren’t, so don’t make that assumption or you’ll waste valuable time! The four back pages contain vital but different clues as to the whereabouts of five keys. Solve these and you are well on the way to achieving your goal. Now you need to plan the best route to pick up the keys, then locate the gold, then get it back to base - but the facilitator holds vital items. You’ll need to attain them first!
A fast-paced competition in a fun environment, giving teams the chance to demonstrate a ‘top team’ performance. They’ll need all their interpersonal and organisational skills - but they can do it! Equally suitable at the start or at the end of a teamwork activity course.

A. Jasir, Burger KingTop Team is an excellent, fun activity that requires serious thinking. Helps a lot in raising awareness before our presentations on building successful teams as we can relate back to the activity.
R. Nicholls, DLO AndoverTop Team is a very good activity that I use regularly. It presents a challenge, encourages teamwork and tests organisation and communication skills.
B. Bailey, Lea StoreyWe used Top Team with some teams from one of our clients. Our group learned some valuable lessons. During the planning phase they realised that planning the whole operation first would make more sense. This taught them the virtue of looking at the overall plan in concept before concentrating on detail – a valuable lesson.
M. Palmer, MaSTLots of good things came out of the Top Team presentations – such as the need to vary leadership style at different stages, team roles, using strengths of team members, the value of initial planning, delegating and taking responsibility, communication, quality of information, risk assessment, etc.
