What's Inside The ERG Recipe Book
Like a cookbook, but for ERG events—complete with categories, instructions, and tips to make each format your own.
Inside, You'll Get:
50+ ready-to-run ERG formats across five powerful categories that cover your full programming year.
🍣 Tapas Table — Quick, 15‑minute formats that build connection fast.
🧠 Brain Food — Interactive sessions that teach, not talk at.
🍠 Soul Food — Service‑driven ideas that give back with purpose.
⚡ Power Bowls — Well‑being experiences that actually energize people.
🍲 Main Course — Signature celebrations with structure, not chaos.
Plus:
Guided prompts on when, why, and how to use each format so you're never guessing what fits your moment.
Bonus "Chef's Tips" to instantly upgrade every event — from small wins to full‑blown showstoppers.
Plug‑and‑play clarity that saves hours of planning while keeping every event on‑brand, intentional, and fun.
This isn't a book of events.
It's a training tool, a facilitation framework, and a mindset shift disguised as a recipe book.
Every page helps your leaders:
Think like facilitators (not just volunteers)
Choose the right format for the moment
Create consistency, not chaos
Deliver better experiences with less lift

"Grateful to the team for getting each of the ERGs 2 of Maceo's new book, 'The ERG Recipe Book'! When I heard about the upcoming book, my hope was that we would get at least 1 book to pass around the ERGs. Instead, they got us 20 books!"

"Thank you so much for the recipe book! This was an amazing tool to lift the cognitive load of being an ERG Leader. Now we don't have to create stuff from scratch - it means a lot to have things fully baked out that we can just pick from!"

I wrote this book because I've been where you are. As a former ERG Leader myself, I know the pressure of coming up with fresh, engaging programming while juggling everything else on your plate.
Now, working with ERG leaders across industries, I kept hearing the same thing: "Just be more creative!"
But that advice? It's not helpful. It's like telling someone to "just cook better" without giving them a recipe.

This book is your recipe collection. It's not just ideas—it's a framework for creativity. Because you don't need more pressure to be creative. You need a resource that makes creativity accessible, actionable, and actually fun.
