Book Description

The Big Book of Humorous Training Games emphasizes "humour" in each of its 50 games. Lead author Doni Tamblyn is a professional trainer and former stand-up comedian, and has brought the elements of comedy into these witty and highly effective training games. The games cover popular topics that most trainers cover: Humour in Presentations, Customer Service, Motivating People, Teambuilding, Presentation Skills, Change, Emotional Intelligence, Creative Problem-Solving, and Time Management. Most games take just 5-20 minutes and include reproducible participant handouts and worksheets, to keep the leader's job simple, and preparation time to a minimum.

4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent book for trainers in need of inspiration!, 17 April 2001
By A Customer
This is a brilliant book for trainers needing fun games to inspire their learners!

Games from this book can be adapted very successfully. It's easy to read, and offers help from improving your training techniques (a bit cheesy!), through to evaluating the training session.

Good for anyone involved in training in the workplace - new or experienced.

1.0 out of 5 stars Waste of money, 25 Feb 2009
I got maybe 3 useful things from the entire book. It is very American in style/language/content. Some games are explained in painstaking detail, including scripted parts (which I can't imagine anyone being lame enough to actually say).
