2 thumbs down
I bought this book back in January and couldn't wait to get my hands on this book, judging from previous reviews I thought it would be a good tool. As a team facilitator I can honestly say this book is a dud! I have held countless team building and team spirit workshops and/or meetings and not once did I find a suitable exercise!

How I lived without it, I dont know!
1001 praises for this book! I recently became a trainer at my company, the book helped out in heaps when it came down to ice breaking and team building exercises. Everyone was amazed on how well I've conducted my training sessions! Maybe I should let them in on my secret book!

A few nuggets
I ordered this one with Brian Miller's Quick Teambuilding Activities for busy Managers (which is excellent). I was disappointed by this one. So many of the activities were overly simplistic. Several werent what I would even call activities, but rather "facilitated discussions." I only found a few worth trying. I rely on the other book much more. Similar Products
