How can twenty sticks of dry spaghetti , a yard of tape , a yard of string , and one marshmallow help build a stronger team ? A popular team - building exercise , as the Marshmallow Challenge , promises to do just that . In this challenge , only the materials mentioned above , teams compete to build the tallest free - standing structure of supporting the weight of one marshmallow at the top . only 18 minutes to complete the task , the teams must learn to collaborate quickly .

The Marshmallow Challenge , by Canadian technology expert Tom Wujec * , has been conducted around the world with architects and engineers , CEOs , lawyers , business graduates , and even kindergarteners * . the years the challenge has produced some surprising results . In Wujec's study , the average height of the structures constructed was 20 inches . The group that built the highest structure was , as , architects and engineers . CEOs performed slightly better than the average , third . Lawyers , on the other hand , performed below average , ranking second to last . And working to create the best plan , business graduates performed the worst . , kindergarteners outperformed * most of the adult teams to achieve the second highest performance .

The high of the kindergarten group is certainly impressive . Most of the time , kindergarteners can come up with unique ideas and make their structures taller and more innovative than of adult teams . One reason for this is that kids usually get to work with what has been given to them right away , adults spend most of the time planning before putting the structure together . This leaves no time to the design if it cannot support the marshmallow . reason is that unlike adults , kindergarteners are quicker to change their methods after failed approaches . They rely trial and error ? if one method doesn't work , they quickly move on to the next . This approach gives them immediate feedback about design elements work to give their structure height and stability . Still another reason for their success is that children tend to freely and naturally . They don't waste time deciding who is in . , they are more focused on working together to figure out how to build the tallest structure .

The Marshmallow Challenge teaches us that age and experience are not the only to success . In order to solve problems , we must get our sleeves rolled up and get stuck in right away , and experiment with new ideas , and collaborate effectively . In this way , we can surely get the marshmallow to the top .
