The skills and techniques offered in Essential Facilitation™ are designed to produce significant performance improvement, career development, and personal growth. Essential Facilitation™ shows how to effectively facilitate in situations that have one or more of the following "three Cs":

  • Complex or high-stakes content.
  • Conflict — the situation is emotionally-charged or controversial.
  • Context — when you must balance multiple stakeholders' needs and points of view.

Learning Objectives In this course you will:

  • Develop in-depth preparation skills, including mastering the one task you MUST complete before the start of any meeting.
  • Get best practices for facilitating virtual meetings.
  • Learn to solve problems before they start and handle them with confidence if they do arise.
  • Practice the four essential guidelines for resolving conflict.
  • Receive a whole toolkit of skills and strategies to help groups make better decisions, faster.
  • Learn to navigate difficult situations and cope with challenging behaviors.
  • Learn the five simple steps to take after the meeting to ensure you get results.
