Facilitation Skills

Course Synopsis

Facilitation is all about helping a group of people achieve their goal or objectives. How effective you are as a facilitator will depend upon your ability to recognise the stage of group development the team is at and apply the appropriate facilitation skills and techniques to move them forward. All this and more will be covered in our tailored in-company facilitation skills training course. As you would expect, our facilitator training is interactive and hands on and involves practical group work to promote facilitation skill development.

Enjoyable, good pace, energy. Met the needs of the group. Kim focussed some of the activities to the task we were about to embark on which really helped the group - not just an off the shelf course.
