what is the wheel of names?

The use of the wheel of names is an effective way of making decisions or conducting a lottery-type process in group settings. It's typically used in team building activities and in educational environments, but it can be used for a variety of purposes.

The Wheel of Names consists of a large wheel mounted on a stand with a pegboard center. Names are written on the individual pegs that are placed in the pegboard center of the wheel. Each person in a group will be assigned a name from the pegboard.

To use the Wheel of Names, each person in the group takes turns spinning the wheel and selecting a peg with a name written on it. This creates a fun, random process for making decisions or conducting a lottery.

The Wheel of Names is also used in problem-solving exercises to make decisions quickly and easily. For example, one person might spin the wheel and she will be responsible for beginning the conversation at the start of the exercise. Whoever's name is chosen by the wheel will be held accountable for the task at hand.

how does the wheel of names work?

The Wheel of Names is a modern spin on the familiar fortuneteller's wheel. It's a game of fortune and chance used by individuals and groups at special events, ranging from bar and bat mitzvahs to corporate team building workshops.

In its simplest form, the Wheel of Names is a large, colorful wheel with dozens of names imprinted on it. These names can represent any group of people — celebrities, brands, teammates, coworkers, or even just friends. To get the game going, players sit in a circle with the wheel in the center. The goal of the game is to spin the Wheel and tag the person whose name is revealed when it stops.

Once the Wheel has been spun and the name revealed, the game is far from over. Depending on the rules set by the person running the game, players may have to answer questions about the person selected or take turns spinning until someone is noticed. If a group of people are playing, it is often expected that the person whose name is revealed will offer a short introduction and then ask a question to everyone in the group. This ensures that everyone has a chance to get to know each other a bit better.
