n today's episode, we're diving deep into the whirlpool of group dynamics with a fun, yet challenging game: The Red and Black game. You'll get an inside look at the quirky, interesting, and sometimes intense situations that come up when a bunch of pals get together for a friendly competition. Oh, and you might just pick up a few life lessons along the way too.
In this episode, you'll learn:
+How communication, or lack thereof, can dramatically shift the energy in a group
+The importance of team leadership and how Noelle steps up to guide her group
+The intense side of friendly competition, where "it's just a game" can quickly become "we have to win"
+The comparison of different problem-solving approaches within groups and how these can impact the overall team dynamics
+How the notion of winning can be reframed and, at times, lead to more collaborative strategies
