A “Find Someone Who” icebreaker activity typically involves a printable document, often distributed as a PDF file. Participants circulate, seeking individuals who match specific criteria listed on the sheet. For instance, criteria could include finding someone who speaks another language, has traveled to a particular continent, or enjoys a specific hobby. Upon finding a match, participants obtain that person’s signature in the corresponding box. The goal is often to complete as many boxes as possible within a set timeframe.
These exercises are valuable for fostering interaction and connection, particularly in new groups or teams. They facilitate quick introductions and help individuals discover shared interests, experiences, or skills. The game format encourages communication in a low-pressure environment, contributing to team building and a sense of community. Historically, variations of this activity predate digital distribution, but the ease of creating and sharing PDFs has made it a ubiquitous tool for facilitators and educators.
