Ten seconds. Your team is now the letter W.

Small teams have ten seconds to become a letter with their bodies. Three letters in, they put them together and realise what they have been spelling β€” and the last one is their own company's initial. There is no time to plan, so somebody starts and everyone else adapts, which is the whole point.
