First and Foremost, Happy New Year! I hope your 2026 adventures are memorable.
Back in 2019 Phraseology Cards were introduced. I use them regualrly to spark thinking, meaning, and creativey. And I've heard from other team builders who love them just as much as I do. If you are new to Phraseology Cards please head over to the ORIGINAL POST for the main details about leading the activity and to download Set 1. (FYI: The original download, and the download included here, are almost the same – other than the phrases themselves.)
You can now use either Set, or combine the two for additional talking points. Here's what I share in this second download:
Using Both Sets Together When setting up the activity and counting out your card/phrase needs, include an equal number of phrases from both Sets – with the understanding that each Set of cards is a different color (e.g., Set 1 is yellow, Set 2 is green). During ‘phrasing’ ask participants to only pair up with card colors that are the same (‘sameness’). Share meanings when matches are found. Then, during Re-Phrasing, ask participants to pair up with a different colored card and share meanings when discovered. One talking point can be about diversity – stepping out of sameness can be beneficial, providing opportunities that are not possible if we don’t.
Your new Set:
Phraseology Cards, Set 2 (Thers is a preview first before you choose to download.)
