Most workshops and meetings will achieve more in less time if they are facilitated professionally. The facilitator's task of opening up discussion, getting ideas into the open and setting broad future direction is essential if a group is to reach consensus on a particular outcome. This practical introduction to the essential skills needed when running a facilitated workshop seeks to help readers develop a facilitation style which is unbiased and non-manipulative, allowing them to be in control without being overpowering. With detailed examples, tips for success and a self-assessment guide to test personal approaches to facilitation this book will help readers: understand the facilitator's role; develop the ideal structure for workshops; control agenda and keep workshops running to time; and deal with difficulties.
