The year is 1866 – a period that saw the indigenous peoples of North America, settled in the Great Plains, flourish. An ideal backdrop for a unique corporate game, taking back participants to an era of glory, honor and valor. The natives are led by Red Cloud – a great figure, a magnificent warrior who has watched over the prosperity of his people for years. Faced with the imminent threat from settlers and gold diggers, who are encroaching on the indigenous territories, he decides to unite the tribes. To this end, Red Cloud needs the help of wise and prudent chiefs. They will help him make enlightened decisions on behalf of the Alliance. It is through such mechanisms that the game becomes an effective form of team building – with an emphasis on meaningful communication and cooperation.
Preserving the ancient traditions of the tribes and guided by the the Spirit of Wisdom, Red Cloud convenes a gathering of tribesmen, called the Grand Ring, every year. To secure a place in the Ring a tribe must successfully pass the Trial of Core Virtues and achieve a certain level of prosperity by trading with other tribes. These goals can only be achieved through close collaboration with others. A place in the Grand Ring is a source of prestige, authority, and immense respect.A daunting task: how to reconcile the interests of one’s own tribe with building good relationships with other tribes? Are you up for that?
The Red Cloud Alliance experiential learning program features a magnificent artistic setting that will take participants back to 1866. They will experience the world of Native Americans with all their senses, as if they were truly there. High-quality props, thematic costumes, and other attributes of the tribes’ rich culture will create a unique atmosphere. The facilitators’ mysterious narrative and evocative tribal music will complete the experience.
