Group Facilitator Skills Seminar

We generally think of a group facilitator simply as someone who guides the interaction during a meeting, but in the workplace a group facilitator can do so much more. He or she can have a positive impact with employees in many useful ways. A facilitator can be a coach, a problem-solver, an encourager, and also an effective traffic-director who coordinates the flow of scheduling and work assignments to keep everyone focused and on track.

However, in order to accomplish all this, a group facilitator must have exceptional listening, communication and analytical skills. Our Group Facilitator Skills seminar is a highly interactive learning experience designed to help participants acquire these important skills and refine them to a high level of effectiveness. The class format features a series of videotaped sessions to allow each student to both practice and observe their progress in building the skills they need. Immediate feedback and personal coaching from our expert instructors assures that every participant will return to the job thoroughly prepared to apply these new skills in any situation.
