I've been tasked with finding some activities we can do with new interns during their onboarding to introduce consulting skills in a fun/interactive way. Anyone have some that they did when they were new that was helpful or memorable?

Do NOT decide on your own. Involve some interns in the decision.

Is this a serious question?

Its never going to happen. The need for labor will always exist.
Can AI grow, harvest, and deliver food from farm to tables? I think not.

Yeah but your interns don’t work on a farm. Illiterate comment D1.

Role play different scenarios. It’s corny, but it introduces the types of stuff they need to learn to get comfortable with. Do one of these in groups at the start of the day or after lunch, or have one intern present something after a break and then discuss.

- Convince the group why Macs are better than Windows (learn how to present a convincing argument to persuade the client to take what you think is the best option)
- write and present a PPT teaching us how to cook your favorite food (learn how to share information effectively)
- Send out a meeting invite using scheduling tools!! (You just gotta know this one)
