For most people, "fun" hardly would be the first adjective that comes to mind when it comes to office meetings. Meetings often are dull and stuffy, with a lot of rattling on about technical aspects of the business and team-building. Add some fun to a meeting by planning a game in advance with coworkers or introducing an idea to a superior that the whole group will enjoy.
Buzzword Bingo
During office meetings, certain words pop up more often than others. Get together with a few coworkers and prepare to play "Buzzword Bingo" during the meeting.
Go to http://www.officediversions.com/games/buzzword_bingo/buzzword-bingo.html to print out as many bingo pages as you need. To get a different bingo page, refresh the page. Hand out the pages to the participants before the meeting begins, as not everyone will know about the competition.
When the meeting begins, listen carefully to every word that comes out of your coworkers' mouths. When you hear one of the overused buzzwords, mark off the word on your page. If your boss sees you scribbling, he probably will think you're taking meeting notes.
If everyone in your work environment has a strong rapport, have the person who hits bingo stand up and shout "bingo!" as if it were a regular game. Your boss and some coworkers might look puzzled, but if the atmosphere is friendly, they should chuckle after you tell them about the game.
