Work & Ambition
Remote or in person

Twenty-five questions about the work people do and where they want it to go.

The set for a room that works together and has never talked about why. It opens on the easy ones β€” a skill nobody notices, the best advice anyone ever gave you β€” and the later cards ask what success means right now and what somebody wants to be known for, which is a question most teams have never put to each other out loud.

Run this when…

If none of these is your room, pick another.

  2. A team that has worked together for years and never had this conversation

  3. A one-to-one or a small group that needs something better than "how's it going"
