LIVE DEMO: What is facilitation?
11 Sep 2024 8:45-11:30 / Keskuskatu 4, Helsinki
Have you been in a bad meeting, training, or workshop? There is no agenda or structure; the event runs overtime; one person dominates the discussion; people multitask. In short: participating seems a waste of time.
Welcome to our free demo where you will learn how to help people engage and contribute their best in a workshop setting. You also get to network with others interested in facilitation.
What is facilitation? is an experiential learning event, where you will:
- hear about key facilitation structures
- discover methods that unlock the potential in groups
- learn how to facilitate dialogue
- learn how to move the group from goals to actionable outcomes.
