A Balanced Life

Balance, Problem Solving

The Challenge

For the entire group to mount the balance, one at a time, without tipping the balance, or causing the planks to ever touch the ground. The second part of this challenge is for participants to dismount the balance, again without tipping the planks, or causing the planks to touch the ground.

Typical Presentation, Storyline or Metaphor

A Balanced Life in action

Well, it rained, and rained, and rained, and now your office is flooding. You've managed to get the computers and other essential office equipment to higher ground, but now your brand new shoes are getting soaked. Phil, the Vice-President in charge of risk management, brings in a long plank and a single block to set the plank on (the other block was let go during a recent down-sizing event that most of the group would rather not discuss right now). Can your group find a way to stay dry by keeping the plank from tipping on the block?
