Just used an original icebreaker name tag in a workshop.
Everybody got a one-quarter A4 size sticker with the following printed on it:

I asked them to work in pairs, helping their neighbour to figure out how to fill them in. Then we quickly went around the room and everyone simply called out the words they wrote.
It was delightful, funny, and broke the ice superbly. And it was also quick – which is important when there’s a lot of people present.
Here’s now they looked (names concealed).
good on you, Les. A fast ice-breaker is a good ice-breaker. I might borrow that one. Nah. Bugger that. I’ll just steal it and say you got it from me.
That is VERY cool!!! I will use this one… What a great way to bereak the ICE…
Thanks les, and good to know you’ve ued it and it did work.
That is an awesome idea Les! A great way to break the ice and get an idea straight away of how to strike up a conversation with someone 🙂
