First, acknowledge that everyone does, in fact, have legs. Then? It all sort of depends on what you’re trying to accomplish. A bit more context maybe?
zzz....
What is the goal of this session?
Pie eating contest, obviously.

Looks like it's huddling. Sales huddling.
You're an EVP with no ideas? C'mon man.
Pretty typical ;)

Ice breakers
- Worst cold call you've ever heard - funniest interaction with a prospect - You get the idea
Pull open a call and listen live to it, could be one of yours and or one from a rep not on the team you're meeting and talk about what you like or don't like.

2 hours is a very short time especially if the team has not gotten together in 6-months.
Why was this meeting set?
Have you asked the team what they want to cover?
If you more general regular team meetings virtually. I would keep this social.

Get them a few drinks.
Oh, it's in the middle of a QBR? Great, do it anyway and become a legend.
Nothing helps a scattered group of people get together quickly like drinks and some funny story of something one idiot did while too drunk. It's a rallying point, something to build off of.
Plus, if it's been 6 months, they probably want to blow off some steam and just hang out together without other obligations.

That's great! For a productive huddle, start by setting clear objectives and goals for the session. Encourage open communication, share success stories, and discuss any challenges faced. Also, consider team-building activities to strengthen bonds. Remember to keep the atmosphere relaxed and enjoyable. Good luck with your session!
