 I
would definitely recommend this game to other
colleagues and companies. Most of the team said they
weren't really looking forward to the 'Team
Building' and were worried about what it entailed -
but afterwards everyone raved about it.

I
had a trial run with two potential users. After a
few minutes we really got into a
good discussion and found ourselves relating it
to current situations at work. It certainly could be
a very useful tool.

My
initial reaction was that the price was
high for two sets of cards, but I
definitely see the work involved in it
and it's certainly a lot cheaper than
having a consultant come in. Also, an
advantage is that one can use this over
a very long period, using one question
per meeting if so desired. That you
can't do with a consultant. And that
definitely saves money. I think if the
questions are selected carefully it can
serve a very
wide range of workers from hourly to salaried. |
The
first time I used INTERACT teamBuilderTM
was with a banking client of mine that had some
serious teamwork issues. After using the
game with the group, the following week
several group members called me to say that
communication was better with their
co-workers and they learned it from the game
and how smooth the week was going.
INTERACT teamBuilderTM
is now my game of choice when working with
clients that have teamwork issues.

We
used the INTERACT cards as a discussion
tool in table groups: a certain number
of cards were placed at each table, and
participants took turns selecting a
card, reading the scenario and engaging
in conversation with the other
participants. After 20 minutes or so, we
asked for report-outs on selected
scenarios and how decisions were made
that reflected the values of the
company. The participants found the
activity
thought provoking and lots of fun.

A
novel and powerful way for any team to
improve their communication with
integrity and openness.
