'The Big Book of Flip Charts' is absolutely a great resource for preparing interest catching, energizing flip charts. I have been a trainer for 10 years and I can't wait to try some of the ideas. I especially like the information on group facilitation which will enhance the following modules we are delivering: Supervisory Skills, Teambuilding, Participative Decision Making, and Visioning.

I bought this book expecting to get a couple new ideas...boy was I surp rised. I got dozens of new tips that I'd never seen anywhere else. This guy knows his stuff related to flip charts!I'd highly recommend it to new and seasoned trainers and presenters.

Don't even consider any other flip chart book, they don't come close. This one has it all.. designing flip charts, arranging them, writing them, making them visually interesting. Tons of useful and helpful information.

This book, together with Picture's Worth 1,000 Words: A Workbook for Visual Communications by Jean Westcott and Jennifer Hammond Landau are all you need to become an effective visual communicator, even if you can't draw anything! If you think you're just not good with flip charts, buy these two and prepare to amaze yourself with the transformation!

Perhaps I didn't get this correctly but this book didn't really live up to my expectations.

I did learn some stuff from it and have used some of it since, but I actually expected a little more from it.

Possibly I was expecting a little too much. If you are after something that will tell you some of the basics of working with flip charts, designs of flip charts and a little bit about the type of hardware then this is a good one.

If you are after something that will help you to create dynamic sessions, push the limits of visual aids, and drive people into more thoughtful training sessions then this book is only partly useful.

If you're still relying on flip charts as your main presentation medium, then this is a very important book. For Powerpoint users, there's still good info in terms of how to make best use of the space available in order to transmit information. Neat thing about flip charts is that a skilled facilitator can use them in lots more interactive ways for smaller meetings than powerpoint slides tend to be, even with all that animation.

As an instructor I look for many products that will assist myself and participants of my train-the-trainer workshops. Although I've purchased and used other flip chart reference information, I found the BIG BOOK of FLIP CHARTS to me informative, well illustrated and to the point. I puchased 5 copies and would recommend it to anyone in the training field that uses flip charts. The cover was also very colorful and gave great insight on what was inside.

The graphics and content are easy to follow, well organized, and practical.

Good service, book in excellent condition. Received in a timely mannner. Thanks.
