Foundations of Gestalt Facilitation (Live-Online)

For Group Leaders, Managers, Trainers, Consultants and Coaches 

Facilitation skills are increasingly recognized as an essential competence for managers, leaders and others responsible for ensuring groups, teams and organizations successfully achieve their objectives.


These skills are also an essential competence for consultants and coaches seeking to better serve their clients in this time of rapid change, polarized public discourse, increasing diversity, and globalization.


A facilitator manages process and contributes structure to meetings and events to ensure that groups work and learn collaboratively, function effectively and make high quality decisions.


A skilled facilitator selectively applies tools and techniques to help groups:

 

  • Work together effectively
  • Create the environment or conditions for individuals to bring their best contributions
  • Harness individual and collective potential and productivity to achieve desired outcomes.

 

This highly experiential program gives participants the opportunity to acquire and practice the essential skills of facilitation, ensuring the learning can be readily and effectively applied immediately upon return to work.

"Already a seasoned professional, I moved to a new area and faced many challenges adjusting to changes in my personal and professional life. The Skills for Influential Leadership class helped me reevaluate the value and skills I bring to the table. I left the three-day program with renewed interest in collaboration and problem solving as well as a renewed sense of confidence. I can’t wait to go back to another program."

Sheila Hoogeboom, MEd, Director of Business & Credit Programs

"This program was a big help for me. I learned a lot about myself and several simple tools that improved my ability to work with and lead others on my team as well as my clients. I learned how to recognize and set aside some of my own assumptions about people and the challenges we were facing. This has allowed me to see new opportunities and solutions for moving my organization forward.”
