How well do we really hear each other? The Office and Admin team explored this question through a series of hands-on communication activities — from back-to-back Lego building, where partners had to construct identical structures using verbal instruction alone, to ranking the skills, attitudes and values that make communication truly effective.
The team reflected on the full journey of a message — from sender to receiver — and identified the steps that make it land: clarity, active listening, confirmation, and honest feedback. A closing morse code challenge put non-verbal communication to the test, reinforcing just how much intention and attention real communication requires.
Key takeaways: message clarity, active listening, and transparency rose to the top as the most valued communication skills within the team.
