At the end of the alloted time ask them,

How they managed the activity?
How they allocated the Tasks and Resouces?
How they Planned the Time Schedule ?
Who was the Time Keeper?
How the Time was managed by managing the Task?
What happened when they realised that some other Team was faster?

Ask them to list out Activities they are supposed to do in their line of Business and allocate the time required for each activity and see how much they can achieve in a day!!

Also Explain thet there are only three Kinds of Jobs
1. Urgent
2.Important
3.Priority

Ask them where they would focus their attention and energies, Derive that if we do important things we dont have to worry since nothing will be urgent or Priority, however if something urgent should crop up which was not planned for then Brainstrom on which should be given due importance based on various situations.
