What You’ll Learn
Facilitation skills are central to the effective running of any type of meeting, whether it be a quick brainstorming session, a vision-setting meeting, a non-profit funding campaign or a corporate strategy hackathon, and whether it be coaching across the table with a single client, or managing the entire room.
In our live practice sessions, you and your fellow participants will receive real-time coaching and feedback from Master Facilitators and peers, both on your strengths and areas needing further development. As a result, you’ll learn to master yourself and the skills of facilitating to the extent that you can lead others efficiently and effectively through a creative problem-solving process.
