Teambuilding Activity: Trust Fall
May 24, 2007
The Trust Fall teamwork exercise is a "classic" teamwork game because it's so effective at helping an individual and a team explore both how it feels to trust and be trusted. The experience creates an opening for the team and the teamwork facilitator to have a real and meaningful discussion about how to create a high trust environment.
This is an advanced activity and should only be led by extremely competent people.

Trust fall can help to develop your attitude. You can notice from the people who can be easily guided. They are the people that trust what ever the leader ask to to.
