Facilitation as a Skill vs. Facilitation as a Profession

Eileen Dowse

Facilitation as a Skill Another meeting....sigh. Whether you are brought in as a facilitator or use facilitation skills in your role as a leader, consultant, or educator, the ability to facilitate a group session can provide the edge needed to get the job done and motivate future commitment. When planned and used effectively, facilitated work sessions lower costs through compressed time frames, increase collaboration, and deliver richer results.

What the $#& Just Happened-Honoring and Addressing Conflict

Sheri Hord

Honoring and Addressing Conflict While we don't want to encourage conflict, we do want to encourage difficult conversations to resolve it. Conflict has energy around it that when harnessed can be directed towards positive actions. We want people to feel passionate about their work and have the difficult conversations that come with it.
