Thu, Sep 25, 2025, 5:30 PM CESTThe Art and Science of Breaking the Ice
MSD building FIVE, Praha 5-Smíchov
The first five minutes of any meeting set the tone. ⏰✨

That is true whether you’re running a simple status meeting or a two-day workshop.
And yet: What do most people do with the first five minutes? Waste them. 😞
They either ramble pointlessly, or dive into the main topic too quickly . Either of these will make the participants feel lost. 😕🧭
But for your meeting to succeed, you need the exact opposite: You need to quickly get everyone on the same page.
This is what the icebreakers are for. ❄️🧊

***

Join us for “The Art and Science of Breaking the Ice.”
In this fast-paced hands-on session, you will see that icebreakers can be much more than cheesy time-fillers.
You will learn to use them as strategic tools to boost engagement, build trust and spark collaboration.
We will cover:

Why icebreakers work (even for sceptics)

The ROI of a 5-minute opener

The most effective formats

How to connect icebreakers to your session goals

Rest assured, it won’t be a 90-minute lecture.
You’ll get the chance to roll-up your sleeves , and try those icebreakers out. So that you will leave not just inspired, but equipped.
Spots are limited - mark your attendance to reserve yours! 📅✅
