Ka-POW Energizers
KA-POW! – is a series of short and lively activities designed to motivate and energize a group to initiate relationships and teamwork.
We ignite the fuse - then KA-POW!: our facilitators transform an anonymous gathering into an active TEAM environment.
KA-POW! is an effective format to Kick-start a large gathering and set a theme and tone for the sessions to follow.
The program involves fast paced activities that combine getting to know you ice breakers with a series of quick problem solving activities to promote effective teamwork.
Small activity teams are quickly formed several times during the program so participants meet and interact with many others involved in the program.
Our experienced facilitator’s know the formula for holding a group’s attention, keeping the energy high, injecting good humor, and encouraging learning from each another.
