"Taking risks is a part of life," says Sam Sikes, an experiential trainer and developer of training games. Sikes explains, it is also a part of training. Trainers and participants experience risk too--but sometimes not enough.
In his article, Risk Taking in the Classroom, we learn how to take away some of our safety nets and introduce experiences with unpredictable and uncertain outcomes. The result: dynamic learning that keeps us on our toes and makes the learning come alive.
Sam trains, facilitates, and speaks in a variety of corporate and educational settings including Fortune 500 companies, small businesses and universities. Best known for his creativity, Sikes develops related indoor and outdoor training activities for adults. He is active in organizations such as the Association for Experiential Education and the American Society for Training and Development.
