A dynamic workshop experience
Our workshops are filled with engaging exercises that provide a rigorous and compassionate method for more effective facilitation and consultation, based on Roger Schwarz's Skilled Facilitator Nine-Step Problem Solving Model.
Interpersonal and basic facilitation skills
Every workshop develops the same core toolkit, practiced until it holds up in real conversations.
How would you describe your workplace culture?
✓ Strategies and techniques to address specific challenges faced when facilitating groups
✓ How mindset can create the very situations you're trying to avoid: mistrust, defensiveness, poor problem solving, limited group learning
✓ How the roles of facilitator, leader, consultant, coach, and trainer are similar and different, and when each is appropriate
✓ How to identify and navigate situations where groups ask you to act inconsistently with your role
✓ How to contract for a solid working relationship and avoid problems that reduce your ability to help the group
✓ How to diagnose the strengths and weaknesses of groups
✓ How to intervene in a group to improve its process: what to say, how to say it, when, to whom, and why
