Nametags are your best friends – especially in volunteer situations
where new people constantly come and go. They provide outlets for communication
not unlike front porches, in that they make people less uncertain and more
approachable. What’s more, with the disclosure of personal information,
nametags close the chasm between synergy and isolation, thereby transforming
strangers into friends.
This Training Design explores four basic principles of nametags:
- Preparation and Creation
- Designing and Wearing Nametags
Effectively
- Implementing Nametags during
Meetings and Activities
- Leveraging Nametags in Specific
Fields
And it does so with humor, illustrations, and even a cartoon! Scott Ginsberg
is "the world's foremost field expert on nametags" and the author
of HELLO my name is Scott.
