Activities
in Facilitation and Organization Development
When have you ever had enough, or just the right, group activities? Never! Wouldn't it be nice to be working with a group anywhere in the world and have all your exercises available to you. Submit your exercises they will be, along with a lot of others. Please take a few minutes to send them in?
The format for Activities is simple and follows that of facilitation techniques. We have attached the Activity Technique format in an MS Word document for you to use. Email your activities to Wayne Vick for quick submission. Those not using the format may take some time to be added.
