Hidden Talent
Guess whoRemote or in person
Something you can do that nobody here knows about.
Everyone submits one skill, hobby or oddity from outside work. The room guesses whose is whose. It reliably surfaces the beekeeper, the semi-professional drummer and the person who speaks Finnish, none of whom had mentioned it in four years.
Run this when…
The situations it was built for. If none of these is the room you have, it is probably the wrong activity.
- A team that has worked together for years, but only on work
- A department merging with another
- An intern or graduate cohort
How it runs
Everyone submits something in secret, then the room works out whose is whose.
- 1You start a session and put the code on the big screen.
- 2Everyone joins on their phone — no app, no sign-up, just the code.
- 3You drive the pace from the host screen; the room answers as they go.
- 4Ending the session builds the report, with every answer in it.
Running it well
Only the host sees these. Participants never do.
- Rule out work skills explicitly. Without that you get "good at spreadsheets" and the room learns nothing it didn't already know.
- If it can be demonstrated, ask them to demonstrate it. Ninety seconds of someone actually juggling is worth the rest of the activity.
Run it yourself
Free for thirty days, no card. Add it, share the code, and your room is playing in about fifteen seconds.
