The first book that really opened my eyes to Corporate Facilitation and team building activities is Sam Sikes book “Raptor”. I use and have developed variations of much of Sam’s work.
“The More the Merrier” by Sam Sikes, Faith Evans, and Chris Cavert. This book is a must have for all team building facilitators it is an excellent resource for the facilitation and design of large groups. This book changed my career for the better now I can lead a group (and have lead groups) of 500+ people with just myself and a microphone, and still show a return on their investment.
“The Leaders Who is Hardly Known” by Steve Simpson - until you read this book your knowledge of facilitation and leadership is not complete.
The last book is “The Go-Giver” by Bob Burg and John David Mann. No other book speaks more about giving value to your clients. When I consult with camps and other facilities that wish to incorporate “Corporate Team Building” into their existing business plan, I have them read the “Go-Giver”. It has a profound effect upon how you view the population, any population; you are serving as a facilitator.
