Groups often fail to find the solution to solvable problems because team members do not recognise the importance of their role, or they overlook the information that other members possess. Deir el-Medina is an engaging game designed to identify the various roles each team member plays during work processes and demonstrate how each role contributes to the group's ability to accomplish goals, solve problems, and achieve success.

Deir el-Medina Learning Outcomes:

Identify the various roles each person plays during work processes.
Understand how each role contributes to overall success of the group.
Experience the various task and interpersonal issues that occur when people undertake a project requiring joint problem solving and decision making.

The Facilitator Guide contains game overview and introduction; learning goals; facilitator guidelines; training outline; preparation checklist; observer instructions; debrief and discussion questions; training design options; and a CD-ROM containing a Microsoft® PowerPoint® presentation, participant handouts, and overhead transparency masters.
