If timing is especially critical grab the spine of the book with one hand, and flip through the right side focusing directly on the time stamp, to find an activity which fits your timing constraint.

“Brain Building Blueprints is a must-have when packing my facilitators kit. It serves multiple purposes, a quick reference guide for pre-planning a workshop or responding to requests for impromptu sessions. I feel more relaxed knowing that I have this book with me, readily equipped to respond at a moment’s notice. Highly Recommended!”

Are you tired of feeling like you are lecturing to a completely disengaged audience?
Are you tired of the traditional training methods you were taught in school?
You are not alone! AND It is not your fault.
