About the book

The need for teams to work effectively together is critical to organisational success. The Team Development Exercises toolkit is designed to build the skills needed to make this happen. Perfect for HR professionals, team leaders and those who coach or facilitate teams, it provides a comprehensive range of tools and techniques that will enable effective team development throughout the team's life cycle, and addresses the complexities of team working in a clear and accessible way.

Team Development Exercises includes tools that focus on the specific challenges that face organisations today, including virtual teams, multicultural teams, team mergers, team emotions and sustaining high performance. Containing structured facilitator notes, this toolkit enables users to select and apply the most relevant exercises quickly and confidently. A matrix of exercises at the start of the toolkit makes it easy to pick the most appropriate tools and techniques for the purpose, for the team's developmental stage, and for the user's level of experience. Each tool is customizable, ensuring that the techniques chosen are precisely tailored to an organisation's exact needs.
