This review is from: The Power of Team Building: Using Rope Techniques (Hardcover)

Harrison's The Power of Team Building, Using Rope Techniques is an excellent reference book. The book lacks information and process for relating the Rope Activity to one's current job position and organization. For many people the former is a critical element in understanding Team Development, one's job, one's organization and how the activity is the same or similar to job functions, coordination, communication, problem solving,planning and decision making in the workplace.

However, the book is a useful reference for any one who is involved with the development of teams. The list of activities is quite good and for the professional trainer the book is an excellent wealth of information.
