Hey there, live session hosts! We all know that keeping an audience engaged during a live session can be a bit tricky, but it’s crucial for having a successful team building session on Google Meet. When your audience is actively participating, it not only ramps up energy levels but also makes sure people remember what they've learned, all while having a great time!

Bring the World to Your Google Meet Session with Magic Maps

Starting your session asking 'Where in the world are you tuning in from today?' can be a fun way to break the ice. Using StreamAlive’s Magic Maps, you can visualize everyone's response, right there on a world map. This visualization can spark discussions like 'What’s one team-building activity unique to your location?' or 'Share a dream destination you'd love to go team building at.' This isn't just cool to see, but it helps everyone feel part of a global community even though they're sitting behind their screens.

Capture Group Opinions with Open-Ended Polls

Use Open-Ended Polls when you're after more detailed feedback. Pose a question like 'What’s one word to describe our team’s strength?' or 'What’s a unique team-building activity you’d suggest?' Watch those answers pop up live and build a conversation around them. The variety of responses is great for getting a feel for your group’s morale and can guide your next steps in the session.

Engage Your Team with Real-Time Power Polls

Power Polls are your go-to for instant feedback. You can ask questions like 'What’s the most important skill for effective teamwork?' or 'Vote for the next activity you’re excited about!' Your team gets to see results live, which makes the polls exciting and can lead to lively discussions. Plus, it's a fantastic way to steer your session in a direction that appeals to everyone attending.

Energize Your Session with the Winner Wheel

Want to have some fun and keep everyone on their toes? The Winner Wheel on StreamAlive is an awesome way to randomly reward participants who engage in the chat. Imagine using it for quick icebreakers: 'What’s your favorite way to unwind after a team meeting?' Pick a lucky winner every 15 minutes to keep the excitement alive and spur participation. Or even offer a small prize for the person who shares the best team lunch recipe or a unique memory from past team building experiences.

Visualize Team Consensus with Wonder Words

Want a snapshot of your team’s mood or mindset? Ask something simple yet revealing, like 'What’s one quality that makes our team awesome?' or 'What’s your favorite team-building activity word?' and see the popular answers grow bigger in a dynamic word cloud. Wonder Words show you, in real time, what’s on everyone’s mind—perfect for creating a sense of togetherness and fostering a healthy team environment.
