In a world where effective teamwork is crucial to business success, this immersive experience has been designed to give business managers and leaders the tools they need to better understand their own and others’ responses to challenging situations. The event features a virtual reality escape room challenge developed by Coventry University’s College of Arts & Humanities students, offering participants an engaging way to learn about behavioural flexibility.
Through collaborative problem-solving tasks and interactive puzzles, participants will experience firsthand how diverse approaches to crisis situations—whether methodical, instinctual, or cautious—can yield complementary strengths. Each team will navigate VR scenarios that bring these different behavioural styles to life, demonstrating how they can be harnessed for better outcomes and innovation.
A new perspective on team dynamics and leadership
The event’s goal is to foster understanding among business leaders of how to integrate varied responses to crises and problem-solving styles. By experiencing and reflecting on each approach in a simulated crisis scenario, attendees will gain insights into the value of behavioural flexibility. After the event, participants will be encouraged to share and apply these insights within their own teams, contributing to a workplace culture of adaptability and improved collaboration.
Who should attend?
This event is ideal for business managers and leaders in the B2B sector who wish to deepen their understanding of team dynamics and foster more effective communication and problem-solving within their organizations. Designed to be beneficial for all managerial styles, the event is a perfect fit for leaders who take the initiative, share the lead, or rely on collaborative and data-driven approaches.
