The Blocks Challenge


This was a team challenge to earn blocks.
Blocks were particular emotions that the teams needed to demonstrate to a panel of judges. The blocks that the teams had to deal with at any given time were love, joy, regret, anxiety, hope, guilt, anger, trust, and gratitude. The way they earned a block was for  the team or a team member to enter a room and demonstrate an emotion to the judges. After the presentation, the panel gave a judgment of whether or not they truly felt that emotion the presenter(s) were attempting to convey.

The goal was to challenge students to be authentic and genuine. Particularly when expressing and showing emotion, the students were asked to come from a place of being authentic and genuine. Students understood that leadership is about showing not only their greatness but also their weaknesses as those are the people we learn from most.
