You should try Pandemic. I'd almost consider it team therapy. Yes it's a board game but feels like a condensed team exercise weekend where you end up building bridges (metaphorically and physically).

Pandemic is good in the sense that it is exercise for professional communication skills in a toy environment without business consequences. After you play you should thing about what the experience teaches you about your team. Especially if someone has a very different confidence/leadership/cooperation style in the game than at work projects.
