As a faciltator/coach I am always in search of fun tools to make a point. I regularly use many of the games in this book with my customers. These tools help me to get them thinking differently about solutions and the value of teams in their situations.

'Teambuilding Puzzles' is an excellent collection of fun exercises with teachable moments for any company or team looking to build problem solving skills, rapport and bonding.

As the staff development specialist in my organization people are always coming to me asking for help with their teams. I let them borrow the book and they always find something to help them. I like the teachable moments comments. They help me decide when to use the activity.

My clients always ask for new, fun and challenging activities. "Teambuilding Puzzles" has been a source of a wide array of fun and different exercises. Thanks for helping me succeed!

I work with Boys Scouts and scout leaders as a District Training Chairmen. Since the Boy Scouts of America "is game with a purpose" I use this book to find activities (games) that re-enforce the training sesssion or presentations. I really like the 'format' of the book... the safety reminders, debriefings, the materials needed sections for each activity make selecting an activity easy. I have preplaced entire presentations with activities and debriefing session. I've found that activities that "move" people are often more effective and teach or change a participant faster and longer than a presentation. GREAT BOOK - EXCELLENT RESOURCE for ANY leader!!!

Looking over at my bookshelf it's easy to spot the Teambuilding Puzzles book as it is the one with all the sticky notes poking out of it! As a college educator in an Outdoor Adventure Program
I deal with highly energetic students. This book has given me many in class activities and ideas to work with. We also use the book for ideas when organizing our annual Fall Games. An event dedicated to improving student retention. Overall a great addition to any educators library!! Thanks Tom & Team

I have been working with military teams and public school students for over 10 years. During that time I have never come across a better resource then the "Team Building Puzzles" book. Kids and adults’ alike love to play and interact, and this book is just the tool to ignite their imaginations and get their creative juices flowing. At least once a week I recommend this book to military recruiters to use in their classrooms in lieu of the standard podium presentations. Feedback from the field has been tremendous! If you are going to purchase one book or resource for training teams...THIS IS IT!

The book is easy to read, easy to use. I've used many of the activities with high schoolers. Each activity is detailed with physical & mental ratings that help choosing the right activity.

Tom-
I am director of high school ministries at Life
Fellowship church in Weatherford, OK. I have been
supprised at how well my high school students respond
to the teambuilding puzzles I use out of your book. To impress High School students is one of the toughest jobs in the world. They seldom think anything is relevant to their world. If these teambuilders work with them, they will work anywhere.
