ABSTRACT

This chapter discusses a game of how to adjusting to the new position that can be adapted for use on induction websites. Participants with very different types of jobs are paired and they describe to one another what they do in their job and how they do it. One partner asks questions until there is something about the other person's job that they do not know and need to find out about. The first five minutes are done verbally, the last five minutes non-verbally. The materials required for this game are large index cards or pieces of thin card and markers. Game rules: Distribute cards and markers to the participants and ask them to write their job titles on the cards. Ask participants to find a partner who has a job that is fairly different from their own. When the last five minutes is up, call an end to the activity and have participants return to their seats.
