Icebreaker: Create Your Monster

Report

If you were a monster... how would you look like?

This exercise is a fun and powerful way for team members to introduce or present themselves or other colleagues.

This method can also be used to express emotions or thoughts about a certain topic.

By using the metaphor of a monster, characteristics are more easily displayed and can be exaggerated to make your point.

For instance: if you are a person that talks a lot, you could use a big mouth. If you are a good listener, maybe huge ears are more appropriate. You can look at the pre-made monsters as a source of inspiration, or simply to use them as a final product.

Creating a personalised monster stimulates creativity, brings fun and lightness into the virtual room.

TIP: ask people to copy the attributes so they can be used by several people. Or create a set for each of your participants, mentioning their name so they have their private playground.

The monsters are created by Joao Reis, an Brasilian artist living in Portugal. He has powerful way of illustrating even the most delicate topics in an accessible and fun way. This opens up communication and enhances transparency.
