DVA Games: DOUGH - Effective Communication Training You could work with play dough or plasticine clay. Break your group up into smaller groups or teams. The activity is to be done in silence, with no prior preparation. The dough (at least one lump per person) is placed on a table. The “initiator” of each group starts to make something with the dough, with his/her back to the rest of the team. Give them just one minute to create something. Once done, the creator moves to another place, away from the team. The next person has to add value to the creation. At no point should there be any communication between team members, verbal or non-verbal. Once all are done, the different creative visions are shared, from the first team member to the last. Besides being great fun, it brings out the radical differences in perception, distortions in linear communication and the complete skew in execution that can happen.
