Remember that facilitator who had a gift for bringing everyone into a discussion, getting people to commit to decisions, and getting a team to work together? You too can learn and teach these skills in this two-day workshop. Students will learn a practical way to set ground rules, what it means to focus on process, and how to allow participants to rule the content. They will learn how to solicit agreement by teaching learners that there does not have to be only two choices: we can agree in degrees. Learners will explore the top techniques that successful facilitators use, such as queuing, synthesizing information, getting the entire group engaged, different ways to collect ideas, and how to deal with difficult content and dynamics.
This softskills course includes all the tools that trainers need, including instructor guide, student workbook, activities, handouts, a supplementary reading list, and detailed activities. You can also offer a rich blended learning experience for people who want to learn on the go.
