Customer Reviews

I wish it had been written 25 years ago: superb!

In the preface, Rietz and Manning report they "tried to think of all the decisions, questions, issues or concerns the reader might face so they can proceed with confidence..."From the beginning to the end of the book, the authors deliver on this goal by sequentially guiding the reader through the workshop development process. The content has value for the experienced as well as the novice professional. In addition to learning the new, content in the One Stop Guide to Workshops confirmed practices I have learned over the past 22 years from course work, my own practical experiences, and observations. As I read the book, I found myself wishing it had been written 25 years ago.
