Summary

Games for Legendary Away Days provides a range of games that have been developed and designed by the authors for use on Away Days. The 33 games are divided into 11 sections, matching the types of Away Day that the authors defined in their first book, Legendary Away Days; there are games for teambuilding events, morale-boosting events, change management events, problem-solving events, and so on. Selecting games that are specific to particular styles of Away Days means that the user has (virtually) a guaranteed success rate. There are content-rich games, supported by icebreakers and energizers.

Each of the games has been chosen and the text written specifically with the particular application of the given Day in mind. This means that the games are both highly appropriate to the kind of event you are running and a safe bet for injecting learning with fun.
