Collaboration through Facilitation
- Do you want to enable people to connect with one another?
- Help great ideas get discovered and implemented?
- Ensure that strategies don't remain on paper but have real impact?
You’ve come to the right place.
We believe people can connect and solve their problems – with a little bit of help.
That help is called facilitation.
What Does Facilitation Mean?
Every meeting is driven by content and process.
A facilitator ensures that the process serves the meeting’s purpose.
A facilitator structures a meeting into distinct stages and uses effective methods to keep everyone on the same page.
Why get facilitation training?
Develop your people's ability to collaborate across teams and organisations
Do you lead meetings or workshops face-to-face or virtually?
Do you want to get better at leading effectively?
In facilitation training you will learn effective group tools, processes and practical tips to increase group engagement and commitment.
You will learn how to create commitment to goals, develop innovative solutions and plan action to reach goals.
The world needs people like you:
- People who can create conditions for effective collaboration.
- People who bring us together and help us combine our talents.
Why hire a professional facilitator?
Participate fully in the content while a neutral outsider facilitates the process
Whether you are doing strategy work, product innovation, team development or change management, focus and engagement are necessary to succeed.
We help you create conditions where people can collaborate naturally and effectively. By fostering trust throughout the workshop we help groups tackle even the most challenging topics.
We help you clarify the core purpose of the workshop and guide the group along the journey. We make participation enjoyable but keep the goals front and center.
- Let a pro take care of the process and enjoy the results.
We are your go-to partner when:
- you want buy-in from your team, peers, or leaders
- you want to see the combined talent of your people
- you want guaranteed results from your workshops

Course content: Facilitating change
How do we transition from resisting change to agreeing with others on what should happen next?
Anna and her team are facing big changes that will affect how they operate. See how Anna uses facilitation to get the whole team to commit to the upcoming changes and find the best ways to move forward together. Anna uses force field analysis as a facilitation method.
The workshop is structured around the three core issues of facilitation:
- Objective: A clear objective that is communicated to participants
- Process: Clarification – Solutions – Actions
- Methods: Appropriate group tools and methods for each stage of the change process
