Admit it—you loved scavenger hunts and treasure hunts when you were a kid. We all did. Creating a team building treasure hunt for your organization (office, department, networking/social group) sounds like a GREAT idea—fun, interactive, and low-cost. The questions is, with all the option out there, how do you pull it off? How should the hunt be structured? What should the clues look like?
