Facilitation: The Universe of Skills

Two-Day Inten­sive Workshop

We cus­tomize this work­shop to meet your organization’s spe­cific needs. Pro­vid­ing the same core skills as Mak­ing Meet­ings Work, it also includes many more in-depth tools to address the unique require­ments of your com­pany. Par­tic­i­pants learn and prac­tice each of the tools in pro­gres­sively chal­leng­ing situations.

Course Details:

• 2-day group session
• Takes place at a site of your choice
• An in-depth expe­ri­ence for orga­ni­za­tions wish­ing to build a “cul­ture of facilitation.”
