Moving Beyond Icebreakers

Excellent book for learning and conducting interactive training sessions. I particularly like the way the activities are divided by topic so that you can quickly find an activity for the topic you are training.

Most Useful Facilitation Book I Own

As a teacher, leader of youth development activities, and adult workshop leader, I have a shelf full of books on activities to get people to work together successfully. Since I bought Moving Beyond Icebreakers, it has become the resource I turn to constantly. The book's 300 activities are listed by goals such as trust-building, personal and group introspection, and understanding different perspectives. The format for each activity is very easy to follow, even for youth and adults who are just starting to lead activities. One of the most helpful features is the thoughtful questions to ask the group at the end of the activity in order to strengthen their learning and the group's ability to work together. The book is not only incredibly useful for its activities, but contains advice for structuring meetings and work sessions so that groups or classes successfully reach their goals in a lively and interactive way.

Teacher of Youth and Adults

This book was really helpful to me in improving my public speaking skills and figuring out what to do with groups to get things moving when first working with them. This is a great resource for church, school, or any instructor. I owned the first version and this new one is much better and well laid out. I recommend it highly as a resource for any instructor.
