Escape the Ordinary: Build stronger teams through VR and insight
Coventry University, The Delia Derbyshire Building, Cox Street, Coventry, CV1 5PH
Date: 11 February 2026 - 10.30am - 12.30pm
The Train Challenge:
Team Building on Track Part of the West Midlands Business Festival A fast paced and highly interactive, immersive workshop targeted at improving individual and team performance through collaboration and innovation.
Uniquely bringing together behavioural preferences, a VR escape room set on a train and a team that needs to work together. Teams are formed with a mixture of behavioural preferences. Competing teams work to be the first to prevent an out-of-control VR train from hurtling into a terminus.
This can only be done by solving diverse puzzles in the VR train. Answers to the puzzles can only be found by interacting effectively with team members, who are aided by a deciphering manual, outside the VR headset. The pressure’s on.
Can you stop the train? Can you beat the other teams? Can it be done harmoniously?
Participants:
- Discover their personality and behavioural preferences.
- Solve team challenges in challenging environments.
- Are challenged to trial alternative personality and behavioural preferences.
- Move through four different train carriages each with unique challenges.
- Experiment in a safe environment.
- Discover how they can work more effectively under pressure and within a team.
- Gain insights into how to more effectively approach challenges in their day-to-day work.
