Last week, we conducted a truly transformative experience with Essentia. All employees participated in a specially designed corporate escape game to address themes of ethics, decision-making, and collaboration. The challenge was clear: an ethics alert had been triggered in the company’s system. Participants, divided into teams, had 40 minutes to investigate failures, make critical decisions, and report risks, thereby protecting the organization’s reputation. More than just a game, it was a behavioral laboratory.

The timer is about to start…” That’s how we kicked off Escape Time’s experience for Knot, a company that operates tankers, in an immersive dynamic designed to test decision-making under pressure, assertive communication, and real cross-functional collaboration.

More than solving puzzles, the mission demanded coordination, environmental awareness, and conscious choices when everything seemed impossible—just like in critical operations and regulated environments.

How can crucial soft skills like communication under pressure, adaptive leadership, and creative problem-solving be developed in a way that truly resonates with the team? Many leaders look for answers in traditional team-building exercises, but the solution may lie in an unexpected place: locked inside a room, with a timer counting down. This article explores why the immersive experience of an escape room goes beyond entertainment, functioning as a genuine laboratory for team development and a strategic investment in your company's human capital.

Far from traditional conference formats, this event proposes a direct and relaxed conversation, with individual tabs, creating an environment conducive to authentic networking among mentors, entrepreneurs, and change-makers. But what is the true value of such gatherings for the impact ecosystem?
