Fortify Your Facilitation
As Change Leaders working in community settings, we’re responsible for leading meetings of many kinds – formal and informal, large and small. At their best, these meetings hold the potential to inspire people, connect them, and ignite action. However, meetings hold an equally powerful potential to aggravate people and impede change! Effective facilitation can make all the difference in a meeting’s outcomes. This November’s Change Leader Conference will bolster our facilitation skills to support successful group work. Over the course of two days, we’ll practice techniques to take meetings from gruesome to great. We’ll explore the varied roles a facilitator can play and share tips for handling tricky situations. We hope you can join us!
