I remember one awkward work meeting where everything felt dull and silent. I could see people losing focus, and honestly, I was struggling too.
That’s when I decided to try something different I introduced a quick round of riddles for work meetings.
At first, it felt risky, but within minutes, the energy shifted. People started smiling, thinking, even laughing together.
It broke the tension and made everyone more engaged. Since then, I’ve realized how powerful a simple riddle can be to spark creativity and connection during meetings and now, I always keep a few ready.
