Facilitation Training

Facilitator Training for Leaders

When you become a manager, you’re not just learning how to present information and run meetings. You need to learn how to gain game-changing buy-in from people that results in powerful ownership and subsequent follow through on commitments.  Greater engagement is how smart leaders are getting things done.

People in your team need to feel like they are engaged in the plan, strategy and vision. They will contribute their input and give discretional effort if done right.

So the ability to facilitate is no longer just for trainers, presenters or group and process practitioners.

If there is ONE ability that will always pay dividends in your career as a leader, it is your ability to build a high-functioning team.

Managers increasingly need the capabilities of facilitators to:

  • engage with a group or team,

  • draw information from that group, and then

  • help them collaborate to achieve an agreed outcome.

I believe every manager should understand how to facilitate. That’s why I want to share my most effective principles of quality facilitation — and how to apply them with teams from executive level to the front line.

 

In this one day onsite workshop I will teach you and your fellow leaders the practical facilitation strategies used by the industry’s best facilitators.  Unlike other facilitation training sessions, I devote 70% of the workshop to learning and practicing the group techniques that separate great facilitators from good ones.

My approach to the workshop ensures you get the results you’re looking for: Practical techniques that can be immediately applied; High energy instruction; and Interactive exercises and practice sessions

The workshop is fully customizable, taught at your location, and is best value for groups of 10 or more. Contact me for more information about scheduling a customised workshop.

 

It’s designed to make you 100% confident in your ability to design and facilitate effective meetings or workshops.

After participating in the workshop, executives, business analysts, project managers, middle level team and people leaders as well as those new to managing and leading a team are seeing and experiencing the benefits of being able to:

  • create the right environment,

  • set up a process for engagement with their team,

  • run that process and handle what happens during it, and

  • honestly and authentically gather the input and contributions from their team.

The endgame

I take the team through this process while teaching the team to manage itself. That’s the game changer. I’m not interested in creating a dependancy on me as a facilitator. My ultimate objective is to transfer ownership of the healthy dynamic to the team themselves.

I’m ready to take the next step
