by Chris Elgood

Training games are justifiably popular, allowing theory to be put into practice in a risk-free environment, and encouraging teamworking and decision-making. This looks at the types available, from icebreakers, puzzle and communication games to simulations and role plays. Elgood explains how they work, and which best meet the needs of different training objectives.
