This session gives participants the skills they need to become more effective meeting facilitators. It offers an overview of the art of facilitation and provides specific tools that can be used to help groups generate ideas and make decisions. Learners then receive meeting topics and are given time to design facilitation plans. Each learner then leads a facilitated discussion and receives individualized feedback from other group members and from the trainer. (NOTE: This session requires at least one and one-half days to allow enough time for learners to plan and implement the practice sessions.)
