Quiz Code use cases
A team-building quiz without awkward questions
A quiz can be an easy conversation starter at a team meeting. Choose a topic everyone can access: culture, travel, trivia or shared interests. Participants answer in a browser on their own devices, while the host can alternate questions with short discussions.
Invite participation instead of assessing colleagues
The aim is a shared experience, not a performance assessment. Avoid questions about a particular colleague’s private life, finances, health or beliefs. Combine easy questions with a few that require thought. A new team member should be able to participate without knowing internal jokes or company history.
How to prepare your quiz
- Choose a neutral theme and prepare a short round, for example 5–8 questions.
- Try the questions with someone outside the organising team. Remove ambiguous answers and obscure references.
- Share a link or QR code. For remote meetings, paste the link into chat and explain how to join.
- Leave room for discussion after questions. Finish by thanking everyone, without drawing conclusions about individual work performance.
Example questions
- Which country has the most time zones?
- Which film title matches the clue shown?
- Which invention came first?
Tips for the host
Check facts and definitions before marking an answer as correct. Decide whether people answer individually or discuss in small groups first; the host organises that discussion. For international groups, choose a language and examples everyone understands. Scores should support the conversation rather than become the sole purpose of the meeting.
