Each game is presented in a standard format, with an indication of objectives, timing and group size, detailed step-by-step guidance for the trainer or team leader, and ready-to-copy masters for all participants’ material. An index of objectives makes it easy to select the most suitable items for your training needs and to compile complete workshops or more extensive programmes.
