Facilitation Skills
A highly participative two-day course covering the facilitation process and providing an array of techniques for engaging groups both large and small
Overview
Facilitation is fast becoming a key skill for anyone who is in a team, leading a project team, heading up a working group or managing a department.
Facilitation is the skill and art of guiding others to solve their own problems and achieve their objectives without simply giving advice or offering solutions. A facilitator provides the structure and process – enabling groups to function effectively and make high-quality decisions.
Aims
The aim of the course is to provide participants with the tools, techniques and confidence to facilitate groups both large and small in identifying and achieving their business aims through collective activity. The two-day programme offers participants several opportunities to perform in the facilitator role either singularly or in pairs, facilitating the rest of the group to achieve an aim.
Learning Objectives
By the end of the programme, you will be able to:
- Appreciate the benefits and applications of facilitation in the workplace

- Identify the core practices and skills required for effective facilitation
