The Bigger N' Better Challenge is all about turning
nothing into something. The students were unleashed into
the town with only a paperclip in hand. Their challenge
was to return in two hours with something that was
bigger and better. The rules were as follows:
- No using money or
credit cards
- Be truthful with
everyone you meet
- Be nice
- Keep moving
The teams approached
shopkeepers and random people on the street to see what
they could create. The results of the two hour event
were amazing. Teams returned with a variety of goods,
services, foods and products valued at large amounts of
money.
Some of the key learning
points were:
- The World is
Abundant
- Build relationships
with people
- Attitude makes a big
difference
- Being honest pays
- Move through
rejection
- Have fun with a
challenge
