Zombies in the Quad: sharpen your teamwork skills; save St Andrews!

Course information

Zombies in the Quad!  No, it's not sports teams drifting home after Sinners: it's Halloween, and it's the perfect time to enahnce your teamworking skills!

This interactive workshop will cover the theoretical principles behind successful teamworking before putting you into action in a crisis management activity.  No pressure, but we're relying on your team to work together and make the correct decisions to stop zombies overtaking St Andrews.  Apply teamworking theory as you play through the scenario before reflecting on your performance as a group.

Will we make it to Raisin, or will the dead keep raisin'?  Yes, there will be terrible (not terrifying) zombie fun, but the teamworking principles you will learn are (un)deadly serious.
