Looking for a good book that can enlighten you on the state of the art of team-building, here is the answer to your prayers! "In addition to team building - how to cultivate intelligence and diversity" is the right volume for you!
Dall'outdoor-training with role-playing, art activities by those in social background, the authors dissect (obviously not in a comprehensive way, but very functional) more or less everything you need to know in the field, and depict it all in a handy table at the end of the book.
But the most interesting thing for a professional is probably the concept of alpha activity (Playful Learning Activities aggregates). As the authors have rightly written, "is not correct to describe team building any organized activity in a demonstration. " The fact ALFA include not only activities that are aimed at forming a team, but maybe focus their attention on other skills such as problem-solving and time-management. As someone
surely remember, I talked about the same topic in more than one occasion, as in the seminar I gave in April for the Faculty of Economics, University of Catania (you can read my post about the seminar HERE), but I think that no one has expressed this in a clearer or better than the authors of the book, and I now will use the symbol ALFA (obviously giving him credit).
Chiara Abbate Simone Bandini Buti and professionals are excellent, as is shown through these pages.
Highly recommended!
--- If you are looking for a good book That Could guides you through the state-of-the-art in team-building, look no more! "In addition to team building - how to cultivate intelligence and diversity" is the right book for you!
From "outdoor training" to "role-playing-games", from "artistic" to "social" activities, the authors described (Obviously not in a comprehensive way, But in a pleasant one) about everything in the field, and schematically Them All present in a chart at the end of the book.
But, the most interesting thing for a professional is the A.L.F.A. (Attività Ludico Formative Aggregative – Gaming, Training and Social Activities) concept. As the authors rightly wrote: “it’s not correct to call team-building any social activity that is carried out during an event”. A.L.F.A. includes even the activities that do not have team building as their main goal, but perhaps other skills like problem solving, time-management, etc.
As someone may remember, I have talked about the same argument in more than one occasion, as in the seminar I ran in April for the Faculty of Economics of Catania University (you can read my post about the seminar HERE ), but I do think That no one Have Expressed examination this concept in a clearer and better way, and I will use the concept ALFA myself (giving credits to the authors, of course).
Chiara Abbate Simone Bandini Buti and are great professionals, and it shows through These pages.
Highly recommended!
(NOTE: Actually the book is available only in Italian language)
