Facilitation is “the act of helping other people to deal with a process or reach an agreement or solution without getting directly involved in the processor discussion yourself”.
As a leader and member of a group, one of the most important skills we need is the ability to manage and guide discussions and planning sessions. Small group, as well as large group discussions, need someone to direct and shape the contributions in order to achieve goals and accomplish the set objectives. Being able to reach decisions democratically and achieve goals as a group is important in helping organisations to move forward – the role of the facilitator is essential in achieving this.
This one-day workshop is designed to give you the skills to create a safe environment for participants to share their ideas, as well as manage discussions and contributions.
