A Trusted Learning and Development Advisor
The Latin translation of ”facilitate” is ”to enable or to make easy.” Therefore, facilitation is a helping role and a tool to assist the flow of conversation with the primary aim of working towards a better result.
A facilitator is a neutral party who helps a group to meet key objectives and goals. They are a team player and are very aware of group dynamics. Facilitators are very good communicators, can collaborate and solve problems as well as handle any conflicts with ease.
There has never been greater demand for dynamic facilitation skills. Training skills and facilitation skills are often mixed up. Trainers might think they are facilitators, but they are “trainers”. It’s like an igneous rock thinking it’s a metamorphic rock. It isn’t.
Facilitation is a trusted tool for sharing ideas, delivering messages and collaborating with others. Formal facilitation methods became more structured in the late 60s and early 70s as a means of removing dysfunctions in the workplace. In many organisations, the use of a neutral third party to manage and improve meetings, presentations and learning sessions has become a valuable tool. Normally, the person who manages these interactions does not influence the outcome of the discussion. This facilitator training course for facilitators helps them orchestrate a steady flow of ideas and concepts and direct the conversation towards mutually beneficial outcomes.
