Course Overview

Facilitation Skills Training

An effective facilitator helps a group accomplish a goal, such as understanding or solving a problem, exploring opportunities, defining requirements, making decisions, or other objectives. The ability to remain neutral and keep the group on task to achieve the goal is the value a good facilitator brings to an organization. The investment in developing facilitation skills is rewarded with increased leadership capabilities, more effective time management in meetings and other group settings, and an improved likelihood of achieving team and business goals.
