Description

In this engaging activity, teams don cowboy hats and bandanas, using maps and limited resources to plan their route to the Lost Dutchman’s Gold Mine and back. Over 20 ‘days’ they navigate challenges, unpredictable weather and tricky choices. The goal is simple: work together, return safely, and mine as much gold as possible.

Learning Outcomes

The Search For The Lost Dutchman’s Gold Mine is a proven metaphor for the realities of working life. Teams practise effective collaboration, resource allocation and strategic planning under time pressure. They learn the importance of sharing information, adopting best practices and balancing risks to maximise their success. The activity shows how working together and supporting one another leads to better outcomes than working in isolation. Participants also explore healthy conflict resolution and flexible leadership styles as they adapt to changing conditions. This fast-paced, memorable experience leaves participants with practical insights and a deeper understanding of how to collaborate more effectively back at work.
