Workshop Facilitation Techniques (Volume 2) (PowerPoint PPT)

DESCRIPTION

Facilitation is critical tool and skill to have, as employers and society face bigger and more complex problems and ideas. However, facilitation is never an easy task. It requires a certain level of facilitation skills which can be enhanced by mastering the use of Workshop Facilitation Techniques.

Using a variety of techniques will help people engage fully in workshops and meetings. In organizations, workshops and meetings are normally undertaken to discuss and address problems and issues while, at the same time, intended to come up with the best ideas and solutions. This can only be achieved when we get to involve more people. But when people vary in things like how we take in information most easily, whether we prefer to speak in large groups or small ones, how much reflection time is needed to make up our minds, this calls for a range of different activities that will engage people to be active generators of ideas, information, and solutions.

Facilitation techniques become an essential tool for workshop leaders to facilitate workshops such as Design Planning Sessions, Joint Requirements Planning Workshop or Strategic Planning Workshops. Various techniques must be employed to accelerate the capture of planning, analysis, and design information, as well as ensure that participants work effectively together. Failure to effectively harness the knowledge of participants and manage participant behavior can lead to inability to accomplish a set of pre-defined objectives that can hamper organizational effectiveness.
