Great book

If you conduct training sessions, this series of books is awesome. Lots of ideas that can be implemented in numerous ways. Buy the whole series.

Superb resource book

I had this series of books before - loaned them out at work and never got them back (go figure!). Happy to have found them again here.

I like it!

So many training guides merely compile the same old activities that have been circulating forever. I was glad to see some really unique activities in here (even though it first came out twenty years ago!). I also found the trainer's introduction pertinent and helpful.If you work in an international context, you'll be especially pleased. Many of the other game compilations have activities that are language (puns, play on words) or culture (trivia) based. This volume seems relatively free of such nonsense.It's not the sexiest book you'll pick up. The format and design are simple, even stark. Nevertheless, for sheer fun for your buck, you'll have a hard time beating it.

Excellent resource pack for any business trainer

Excellent resource pack, with a very comprehensive selection of exercises appropriate to many subject areas in business training. I really enjoy trying out new exercises all the time and this pack allows for this.

Excellent

This book is excellent for helping the trainer develop conceptual thinking in staff. Good for lead ins and cooperative education as well.
