Rocket Launch
Rocket Launch is a Team Building event with a difference. You will have the time of your life building and launching your very own rocket 600ft into the air! You and your team are employees within a Weapons and Rocket manufacturing plant. The Company has 250 employees and is situated in a remote desert state of America.
How It Works
The business has just been forced to make 40 employees redundant and morale amongst the workforce is extremely low. However, you and your team have the opportunity to secure the future of this company by re-branding various elements of the business as well as developing a brand new rocket to win a contract that will save the future of your business. You must be flexible enough to move with the market and maximize your output to build, market and launch your very own rocket high into the air. You will compete in a variety of Team Building tasks that will force you to work together in order to claim the highest amount of money on offer. For the teams to successfully secure the contract, they must undertake a number of low risk and high risk activities in order to win money.
Learning Outcomes
You and your team will enjoy a day of Experiential Learning that will improve your team's skills on an individual and a team level. Their negotiation skills will be tested and the teams will have to come up with a strategy to ensure that the build of their rocket is smooth and that they do not lose money on the risk versus rewards challenges. Teams will have to problem solve whilst putting their skills and strengths forward to take charge of different aspects of the build, design and marketing process. Teams will work together, motivating one another and feel united in creating a successful product together and launching their rocket.

They can then buy the Instruction Manual and materials required to build and launch the rocket. A number of breaks will take place for the teams to spend their hard earned money on the essential items required to build their rocket. The teams will have to be particularly careful at the high risk activities to not lose all their money; otherwise they may fail to buy the necessary materials and as a result be unable to complete their rocket build and launch. Teams will pitch their company’s new rocket design for a contract worth $2 billion. They must show that their team and company are competent in completing the large order of weapons required, have the best design and most innovative product on the market. After the Marketing Pitch has been completed, the final test will be to launch their rocket. Will all the teams have successfully built their rocket or will there be failure to launch?
