Review: "How do you keep an audience from becoming bored or restless during a presentation? Stop relying on tired jokes and use these fun-filled, interactive games and activities specifically designed to: build rapport and warm up the audience, provide refreshing "breathers" from the monotony of a speech, get people's blood flowing with physical activity, generate lively discussions, reinforce the key points of your message in an enjoyable way, and win back an audience that's tuned out." "Each game is fast, fun, creative, and easy-to-lead, and costs little or nothing."--Jacket.
