A few years ago I attended a conference and one company (Equal Experts) was handing out Icebreaker cards as swag (You can read the story here https://www.equalexperts.com/blo... ), so I have a full deck of them.

"What were you like 10 years ago/in high school/last year?" It really allows people to tell their stories and you can see how they've changed throughout the years. And it's a good twist to the old "Where do you see yourself in 10 years?" type of question.

Recently, I came across a great question: 👉🏻 What have you done that nobody else in the room has done? If someone raises their hand and says they have done it, you have to come up with another one. --- The benefit of this question is that many people tend to share their unique achievements, which helps others quickly get to know them. Every time we ask this question, many people can't resist sharing multiple things.

"What's your body count?" definitely isn't the best, but it sure as heck turns heads lol.
