There will be two Trebound facilitators present to ensure a safe environment. In this activity, the members are asked to be teamed up in pairs, out of which, one will be the guide and the second will be blindfolded. When everybody is settled, the blindfolded partner is slowly spun a few times to confuse him/her with the direction. The guide has to direct his team member through the obstacles without touching, rather using effective verbal communication.

    Had a great team event with Trebound doing a murder mystery with team members Zooming in from 6+ countries and cities around the world. Very well thought out, great visuals that allowed our team to dig into various aspects of the case and suspects, and good structure to the session for breakouts, etc. Would definitely recommend.

    We have had 3 sessions with Trebound, they have always come up with unique team engagement activities, which are so fun also. Love having them, hope they keep creating new activities.
    Shivam Jha
    When it comes to Virtual Team Engagement, I think Trebound has done a fabulous job to make our event a grand success. The inhibitions we had were quickly resolved and the sessions we had before actually going live, took care of all the queries and gave us the confidence that we can make our "PMI Bangalore Chapter Voluntary Meet 2020" event a new experience in this new normal.
