Canberra
Canberra, with a population of 286,000, is the regional capital of the Australinal Capital Territory (A. C. T.). The A.C.T was created especially as home for the national capital in 1911 to prevent jealousy between the various states (former colonies) of the country. It is located in south-east Australia and surrounded on all sides by New South Wales (originally the prison colony established by the British in 1788). All the major government administrative offices, the Australian National University, and the national museums are sited in Canberra. About 60% of the work force is employed by the government, with a small electronics industry providing most of the other jobs available. Originally a small town, the purpose-built capital shows urban planning at its best, with elegant public buildings and landscapes gardens.

Algarve
Whatever kind of holiday you want, you'll find it in the Algarve, the garden coast of Portugal. But what the Algarve does, and better than most places, is the villa holiday. With your chosen companions-there are villas catering for from four to eight people - you for a package that includes transfers from Faro Airport to the villa, a fully-stocked fridge on arrival, maid service, arid a fabulous villa with its own swimming pool are feeling really lazy, or simply want to try Portuguese cuisine without the worry of which restaurant to choose, a cook. The best villas are usually those located on a hillside overlooking the sea, although there are some very attractive ones that are almost on the beach.

The ideal size for a team is between 5 and 8 members. Larger that this and agreements are more difficult to reach. Each member of the team must have a clear picture of the goals of that particular team and be committed to, and responsible for, the other members of his or her team. it is essential that teams should act together and develop the team 'spirit' rather than working individually. Training should take place together, along with group discussions, debate and decision-making based on the various situations that team is being trained to respond to.
