The team ventured to the Marcliffe Hotel in Aberdeen to deliver our fantastic ‘The Big Mix Up’ quiz for our client Harbour Energy!
Fun and Engaging Energisers!
We kicked off the event with some brilliant energisers to get everyone warmed up and in the competitive spirit. The Marcliffe Hotel provided the perfect setting for the evening — elegant surroundings with plenty of space for our teams to get stuck into the quiz rounds.
Our Big Mix Up Quiz deliberately mixes people from different departments and teams, creating new connections and breaking down workplace silos. It's one of the most effective corporate activities we offer — and one of over 25 options in our complete guide to team building activities.
Why the Big Mix Up Works So Well for Energy Sector Teams
The beauty of The Big Mix Up is in the name — by deliberately shuffling people out of their usual groups, you create conversations that would never happen in a normal workday. Harbour Energy's team discovered hidden quiz talents, forged new cross-department friendships, and generated the kind of genuine laughter that no Zoom call can replicate.
For Aberdeen's energy companies, where teams often work in highly specialised silos, the cross-mixing element is particularly valuable. When the geologist is sitting next to the finance manager and the project coordinator, and they're all laughing about the same music round, something shifts in how they see each other — and that shift carries back into the workplace.

Harbour Energy — A Valued Client

Try The Big Mix Up for Your Team
Want to experience The Big Mix Up Quiz for your team? It works brilliantly as a standalone evening event, a conference energiser, or a daytime team building session. We can tailor the rounds to your industry, your team's interests, and even your company's in-jokes — making it genuinely bespoke rather than off-the-shelf.
