Celebrities Time: 20 to 30 minutes Materials: Pen, POST IT pad, cello tape Objective - To encourage individual participation in the group. - To help participants develop good questioning and data gathering/detective skills. Steps 1. Make a list of famous or infamous people sufficient to cover the number of expected participants. Celebrities might include famous singers, actors/actresses, politicians, business people, writers, musicians, etc. 2. Names may have a common thread connecting them (e.g. celebrities related to the nature of the group, names starting with the same letter or people who were popular during a particular era). 3. If you know the participants well, you may decide to match the assignment of celebrity names to individuals who have similar characteristics. 4. Write the names on POST IT or pin-on name tags or cards. Keep the celebrities&quot; names hidden from the participants. 5. Fasten a name to each participant’s back and encourages them to walk around, asking other people questions about their unknown persona. They can only ask questions which can be answered &quot;Yes&quot; or &quot;No&quot;. No other hints to be given. 6. The exercise continues until all or almost all participants have discovered the identity of their celebrity. Debriefing: Ask Questions like, how did you feel when you were named as a celebrity? How would you feel if you are treated as one?

When they are not served, and stand around waiting, they become angry. This anger is the result of being made to feel irrelevant, because the customer feels that they are not important enough to be served. This perceived &quot;snub&quot; can lead them to walk out, whether they wanted to purchase something or not. As they say, people only get one chance at making a good first impression. The first impression of this particular retail store is not good, and the customer is therefore unlikely to return. If the customer came to this conclusion after waiting just one minute, then their expectations were extremely unrealistic to begin with. However, if they had waited for five minutes without acknowledgment then their firmly declared vow to never return is justifiable.
