Summary Most managers, supervisors, and team leaders realize the importance of team-building, but just can't seem to find the time in their busy schedules. More Quick Team-Building Activities for Busy Managers provides the solution! The book contains 50 all-new exercises that can be conducted in 15 minutes or less, and which require no special facilities, big expense, or previous training experience. Each activity is presented in just a few short pages with all the relevant information including a list of materials needed, the purpose of the exercise, and handy tips for success, all highlighted for easy reference. Readers will find fun and effective activities for: building new teams and helping teams with new members -- finding creative ways to work together and solve problems -- increasing and improving communication -- keeping competition healthy and productive within the team -- dealing with change and its effects: anger, fear, frustration -- and more.
