Silent Birthday Line
Line up in birthday order. Nobody may speak.
The group has to sort itself into a line by birthday without a word being said. What starts as confusion becomes a system — someone invents finger-counting, it spreads, and the second round takes a third of the time. That improvement is the whole point, and it is visible without anyone having to explain it.
You want people collaborating within a minute of standing up, with no talking and no way for the loudest person to take over.
