About OM’s Global Experience Team:
OM’s Global Experience team creates worlds in which participants experience firsthand the needs of those who are suffering. Instead of passively observing a situation, we enable them to take part, safely, in the challenges faced by those in need, and to discover what they can do to make a difference. Global Experience is similar to traditional theatre, except our actors interact directly with guests rather than performing in front of them.
Please note: Some topics portrayed in Global Experience simulations may be difficult, uncomfortable and intense, including issues of human trafficking, poverty, injustice, etc.

• Respectfully cooperate and collaborate as part of a team.
• Be reliable and do what you say you will do.
• Have a servant’s heart yet be aware of and able to preserve your boundaries.
• Be open to receiving and able to give constructive feedback to one another.
• Choose to be gracious even when under stress.
• Handle conflict directly, openly and with kindness.
• Be willing to think ‘outside the box’ and try new things.
