Teamwork and Teamplay

Games and Activities for Building and Training Teams

Best Seller !

A new book of exercises for team building and team training co-authored with Sivasailam "Thiagi" Thiagarajan ... a collaborative effort that emerged from six days and nights of talking, writing, experience-sharing, writing, laughing, writing and more laughing at Thiagi's home in Bloomington, Indiana. We believe you'll have as much fun using the games and activities as we did in creating them. All of the exercises have been tested with teams and other groups in our practice.

The book includes activities designed for team building with intact teams, exercises created for classroom learning ("stranger groups") and others that are appropriate for both situations. An index at the back of the book identifies the best use for each activity.

Among the 40 exercises are activities designed to deal with

• Team Assessments
• Collaboration
• Competition
• Culture
• Consensus
• Ethics
• Leadership
• Motivation
• Problem-Solving
• Norms
• Roles
• Stages in Team Development
• Team Effectiveness
• Values
• Virtual Teams

For each activity we provide you with the purpose, team size, required resources, time required, room set-up, steps to follow, debriefing questions and variations. All handouts, game cards and other resources are provided in a format suitable for easy photocopying and preparation.

And even more important, all materials are fully reproducible for use in education/training activities.

A Vice President of Human Resources called the book, "Absolutely the best toolbox for teamwork I've seen."
