Risk vs Reward

Many agree that “if you take no risks, you will suffer no defeats. But if you take no risks, you win no victories.” Risk vs Reward is a dynamic team-building simulation where teams encounter a variety of challenges that require strategic decision-making, calculated risk-taking, and collaboration. Each choice impacts their bottom line, determining whether they finish as a business success story, or file for bankruptcy.

How It Works

At the start of the event, teams are issued with a sum of money to launch their “business.” Their objective is simple: turn that starting capital into the largest possible return within the allocated time.

Teams must decide how much of their funds to invest across a series of challenge stations, each offering different levels of difficulty and varying rates of return. The greater the potential reward, the higher the risk.

At each activity, teams assess their collective skills, strengths, and confidence before deciding how much to invest. A strong performance delivers a healthy return, while poor execution can result in losses.

At the conclusion of the event, each team presents their final balance and reflects on their overall strategy. Did they play it safe, take bold risks, or suffer from one decision too many?

What To Expect

A strategic, competitive experience that blends problem-solving, communication, and calculated risk-taking through engaging challenges such as:

  • Spot On – Using a series of clues, teams crack a logic puzzle to correctly place coloured spots on a grid. Collaboration and clear thinking are essential.
  • Number Triangle – Teams rearrange numbered tiles so each side of the triangle adds up to the same total. Precision and teamwork are key.
  • Catapults – Teams fire tennis balls via replica catapults toward a landing zone, where strategically placed teammates attempt to catch them for maximum points.
