Team building

Trust-off days produce photos, not change. These 10 team building folders each run in 10–30 minutes, show the team doing something real (drawing, building, negotiating, reviewing), and leave a pre/post delta as evidence. Pick by what your team argues about.

paper first, optional after

Every folder above prints and runs with markers only — no account, no projector. If you want the same measure as a live form, or answers on the room's big screen, each folder page carries an optional section for it: FormLM builds the online pre/post, QRCard-AI runs the scan-and-display half. Neither is required to use what you downloaded.
