Camp Training
"Working with you during the planning stages was a treat! In advance, you meticulously broke down all of our camp literature and staffing information and in return offered an analysis of its objectives. As for the orientation sessions themselves... Again, Terrific! The icebreakers, the teamwork enhancement sessions, and my favorite, the very interpretive artistic drawings by staff members on their visions of each other were a lot of fun and telling. I found you to be resourceful, creative, fun-loving, patient, insightful, and capable. Bravo!"

Developing and maintaining positive Group Dynamics
Communicating with Parents
Functioning as a team (co-counselors)
Avoiding burnout
Working with Senior Staff
Facilitating Icebreakers
SENIOR STAFF
TRAINING
With over 15 years of senior camp administrative experience, Marc Hoberman has developed the methods needed for the effective training of Senior Staff. Let your staff benefit from the fresh voice and new perspective Marc and his staff emphasize on the everyday issues all camp professionals encounter.
PERFORMANCE EVALUATIONS
AND
SPECIALIST TRAINING
Use performance evaluations as a communication tool that will turn counselors on...not off! Marc will personally model his strategies for your staff to use during the evaluation process.
Put the "Special" back in Specialists with innovative icebreakers and roleplays.
