How Crime Scene Investigation Works

What are the rules of CSI?

Ideally delivered as a surprise, the event starts with the arrest of one of your delegates. The event is designed to be inclusive, with each of the activities being brief, fun and can be completed to any standard without their output adversely affecting the overall result. There is an equal blend of all-inclusive activities where all teams compete at the same time and those completed individually within the team.

Like a real-life dynamic incident room, there are options, depended on weather, your chosen venue and preference. Such as including drug testing, an area search, forensic photography, ballistic analysis and with some prior planning, to embed any messages or learnings of company’s core values or own bespoke content.

 The whole event is run against a backdrop of humour, tall tales of real life crime deploying and genuine methods and equipment such as fingerprinting, photo-fits and the use of two way radios.

The event concludes with a whole team collaboration presenting their findings and interpretation of the crime scene and the screening of all their photo and video output, including photo-fits and TV appeal videos.

Who is CSI for?

CSI offers a positive and light-hearted team building session suitable for company away days, or team/department activities. CSI focuses on celebrating wins and achievement rather than highlighting omission, failings and training needs or gaps in delegates’ understanding or knowledge.

Suitable in most venues, with an emphasis on choosing the right setting. Re-create the intrigue of a classic crime mystery in a Castle or Country House.

The skills developed include those of communication, time management, human resource deployment, humour, positivity, questioning, adaptability, attention to appropriate detail, solution orientation, taking on new ideas, integrity, active listening and observation, leadership, organisation, creativity and lateral thought.

How long does CSI last?

CSI is flexible dependent on your itinerary, however usually lasts between 1.5 and 2.5 hours.

Client Kudos

Ross and the team at Maximillion were an absolute pleasure to work with and played a HUGE part in the success of the Phoenix Leadership UnConference 2023! From the very beginning Maximillion embraced the relaxed feel of this year’s conference and helped bring our vision to life! From a bespoke centre stage to Lego figurines, beanbag seating to branded sticky notes – everything was planned and executed to the highest of standards and myself and the wider team could not be happier! Maximillion have delivered many events for Phoenix Group, they are an extended part of the team and we honestly couldn’t deliver the events like we do without them!

Phoenix Group

With restrictions in place that curtailed our previous plans for the company’s 50th anniversary we were delighted to find a great alternative and a team well-equipped to deliver an event for such a significant milestone. The Maximillion team worked closely with us, making suggestions and sharing ideas to help make our virtual away day celebrations a real occasion. The feedback from the events was really positive and it was great to have a chance to get together in such a fun environment when all the teams have been working so hard over the past months.

Maximillion ran the Urban Adventure for our teams with the activity run in Edinburgh city centre and the feedback has been nothing but positive. The activity brought teams together from different offices and different business areas and was a great way for everyone to get to know each other in a fun and informal activity.

The general comment today in the office is how amazing the event was and how much fun people had.

University of Edinburgh

We held events running over two days. The Maximillion Gameshow which was fun and engaged all who attended the first evening event. During our away day we had Team Tops Trumps in the morning, again this was inclusive for all who were in attendance. Lastly during the afternoon of our away day we took part in Level-up which I have to say was great fun for all involved.

The InterGen Summer Event 2024 was an unforgettable day! This could not have happened if it was not for the brilliant team at Maximillion. Their attention to detail, organisation skills and fantastic hosting/MC’ing on the day of the event was brilliant. Massive thank you for making our team building event the highlight of 2024.

We thoroughly enjoyed our trip to the Lake District. Jenny & Rhys are extremely easy to work with and made both our Wednesday evening boat cruise and Thursday team building events, evening meal and band fun and enjoyable for all who attended. We would definitely use them again.Thank you Maximillion.
