KEY BENEFITS Facilitation is a ‘Life’ and leadership skill to be used in many areas of your life. Unveil the power of structured, collaborative thinking paired with action for achieving goals. Cultivate the potential of a group by involving participants in building consensus and promoting quick results while creating opportunities for broader-based participation and influence. Generate more and better solutions to problems. Manage (or better yet, prevent) dysfunctional behavior in the group. Practice facilitation techniques with interactive feedback and coaching. While there are certain ‘classroom’ elements that will occur to give everyone a baseline of knowledge, you will help direct which elements receive the most attention. However, there are a few items that WILL occur during those two days: 1. You WILL learn how to run and debrief activities. 2. You WILL facilitate and process an activity from start to finish. 3.

You WILL receive feedback from participants and instructor about your facilitation.

Facilitate to Create a Team

of legends who are: ON FIRE!

Aligned and motivated by the purpose of the organization.

High Performing

100% Engaged

Productive AND Efficient is a powerful combination.

Do you want a team of ‘out of the box thinkers’? NO! You want a team who will challenge the box itself.

Taking the time to align individuals on the team is essential to create the powerful cycle of synergy that comes from a team on fire.

Alignment without productivity is a waste. People will be working on what is most important to advance the organization. With alignment, everyone keeps #1 priorities #1.

Engaging the individuals of the team on a deep level creates a level of dedication and drive unseen in normal teams.
