The Miki Island Story & Narrative

Picture this! You and your team have just been rewarded with an exclusive end-of-the-year retreat to Hawaii for your exceptional teamwork. You board the plane with everything you need – sun cream, bikinis, and good vibes!

On board, you meet the world-famous adventurer, Grizz. As you soar over the breathtaking Miki Island in the Pacific Ocean, Grizz regales you with tales of her daring discoveries on the island. 

Did you know “Miki” means “Quick & Nimble” in Hawaiian? You have to be lightning-fast to survive there!

Then suddenly, your plane faces technical issues. The rapid atmospheric drop knocks out everyone on board, and the plane crashes on Miki Island. 

Together, you must navigate the treacherous island jungle to reach the only rescue point, or everyone dies. But time is not on your side – you have a limited number of days to reach the marine base on the other side of the island, and information is scarce! 

Welcome to Miki Island!

On Miki Island, teamwork is not an option – it's the key to survival.

In this simulation, the team will experience and practice the behaviours of high-performing teams.

KEY LEARNING EXPERIENCE

Food and water are scarce, so the team must carefully plan their moves across the island.

KEY LEARNING EXPERIENCE

The team has 60 minutes to reach the rescue point. Can they make a team decision, or will it become a one-person show?

KEY LEARNING EXPERIENCE

It’s never what you expect on Miki Island, so the team must adjust its strategies based on what they know before it’s too late.

KEY LEARNING EXPERIENCE

The team is on their own, and they only have 3 chances to "stop & reflect" during the game to keep a level head and assess the situation.

Select roles & responsibilities in the game!

Miki Island mirrors workplace challenges!

Each player in the game has a specific role and set of responsibilities.

Defined team roles improve task allocation and efficiency.

The game stresses the value of a shared vision (survival) and goals (reaching the rescue point), which create unity and purpose crucial to team success.

Miki Island's "stop & reflect" moments create a safe space for team discussion.

It builds trust, encourages sharing ideas, and improves problem-solving.

Teamwork is crucial to survival on Miki Island.

This is reflective of the real world, where the efforts of every member are crucial to the team’s performance.

Miki Island needs the team to communicate and make quick decisions.

This translates to having efficient communication channels, collaborative tools, and regular feedback.

The game encourages team decision-making to achieve their goal.

At work, team members feel ownership and commitment to the set goals when they make decisions together.

I am impressed by the amount of real work-life value teams have taken from this journey. Not only it was interesting, but it’s applicable. The set of changes in behavior and attitudes initiated have boosted the agile growth and performance of our teams.
