Teams and leaders
Moral Compass Game
What do you do when values clash? When there's no good choice, only less bad options? The Moral Compass Game confronts teams and leaders with dilemmas that matter. No theory, but conversations that challenge and connect.
What it is
Dilemmas that matter
The Moral Compass Game is a structured session in which teams or leaders are confronted with concrete dilemmas. Situations where values clash, where loyalties chafe, where there is no ready-made answer.
The game is not a quiz with right and wrong answers. It's a facilitated conversation that forces participants to think about what they stand for and how they act under pressure. The real value lies not in the outcome, but in the process.
What it is not
Not team building
The Moral Compass Game is not a casual team building activity. It's not a game to improve the atmosphere or to relax for a while. The dilemmas are deliberately uncomfortable. They touch on themes that teams often avoid.
That's precisely where the power lies. By making the undiscussable discussable, space emerges for genuine connection. Teams that go through these conversations together understand each other better. They know what they have in each other when it truly matters.
How it works
A session that makes impact
A Moral Compass Game session typically lasts two to three hours. The session is facilitated by an experienced guide who ensures a safe context and sharp questions.
Participants are confronted with a series of dilemmas relevant to their context. They must take a position, defend their choice, and listen to others who choose differently. The facilitator guides the conversation, challenges where needed, and ensures everyone is heard.
Afterward, there is time for reflection: what have we learned about ourselves and about each other? What do we take with us into daily practice?
For whom
Accessible, but not casual
The Moral Compass Game is suitable for teams that want to work on trust and openness. For leadership teams that want to explore how they handle difficult decisions. For organizations that want to open the conversation about values and integrity without immediately starting a large program.
It's an accessible way to get a taste of our approach. At the same time, it's not a casual introduction. The conversations that emerge can be confronting. That's precisely the intention.
What it delivers
Insight and connection
Teams that complete the Moral Compass Game gain insight into each other's values and ways of thinking. They discover where they're aligned and where the differences lie. They learn how to deal with those differences in a way that connects rather than divides.
For many teams, this is the beginning of a more open culture. A culture where it's normal to talk about what's difficult. Where integrity is not a poster on the wall, but a living conversation.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Curious whether the Moral Compass Game fits your team or organization? Below we answer frequently asked questions.
How large can a group be?
The ideal group size is up to fifteen participants. This is large enough for diversity of perspectives and small enough for in-depth conversations. For larger groups, we work with parallel sessions or split the group. Contact us to discuss what works for your situation.
Can we customize the dilemmas to our sector?
Yes. While we work with a base set of proven dilemmas, we can adapt or supplement these with scenarios specifically relevant to your sector or organization. Think of dilemmas around patient safety in healthcare, or around confidentiality in the financial sector. We discuss this in advance.
