When a larger group should celebrate a success of the whole group or a subgroup. The following can be used.
1. For each team sharing their success divide the team into two sub groups. One subgroup takes the roles (people, objects, places, etc.) and re-enact what the success was and happened to contribute to the success.
2. The other team members narriate the story of the success or clarify why it happened, how it happened, what the outcomes were and the conclusion.
3. Lead a discussion about the success.
