FACILITATION

"We'd had two meetings already with our contractor which were spectacularly unproductive - we constantly got drawn into side issues, blame-throwing and cycles of conflict.

"For our third meeting, we decided to bring Jon in as an independent facilitator. The difference was remarkable - the day went so much more smoothly. We were able to get agreement on all the key decisions, and retained good working relationships as a basis for future co-operation"

(Head of an MoD naval procurement team engaged in difficult contract delivery discussions).

FACILITATION TRAINING

We offer practical training for anyone who facilitates groups. It is highly participative and designed to help delegates achieve a comprehensive understanding of the process and develop the skills of facilitation.

Delegates will receive a 'Facilitator's Toolkit' containing a range of powerful techniques they can utilise back at work.

Objectives

As a result of completing this facilitation training course, delegates will be able to:

a.. Define facilitation and be able to choose a facilitation style appropriate to the event.
b.. Support the group in achieving agreed goals
c.. Work with dynamics of the groups to build consensus and overcome obstacles
d.. Ensure every member of the group is able to contribute fully and constructively
e.. Handle difficult situations/people with confidence
f.. Use a range of facilitations tools to maintain pace and introduce variety

"I wish all the conference sessions I attend were this well organised and facilitated"
