Riassunto

<div>Games can be more than child's play; they can teach adults, too. As US employees spend more and more time in workplace training, corporations are seeking creative ways to develop and motivate their staff. Beard and Wilson provide a solid and easy-to-follow background into the concepts of experiential, or activity-based, learning and highlight successful techniques, from outdoor team-building to office-based activities. Their concepts can be applied to any groups, from school children to corporate teams.</div>
