You likely heard that Michael McRee, Ph.D. announced our NEW fall project: Facilitation School. We've been working on it for quite some time, and we are excited to offer our first 🎤 LIVE event on October 1 and 2 in Indianapolis. When we think about facilitation, we know the right facilitator can make all the difference. So, we have created content to help you get right to the best work.
As your guides, here is why we are adding facilitation training to our list of events:
✨ Facilitators need reps and practice. You can't wing great facilitation (although we've all tried!).
✨ Facilitators need a plan for how to read the guide. Did you know there are three things you need to scan for as you review your facilitator notes?
✨ We scoured through Mike's Ph.D. research and are sharing the top things participants need from facilitators and the results are fascinating! We will share this brilliant research with you so you don’t have to guess what to do as a facilitator.
✨ Most facilitators still read the PPT (which is why I have to sit in the back corner at conferences so I can sneak out). We know great facilitation comes from letting your audience participate instead of reading to them. You don't go to camp to watch a video about canoeing and horseback riding, you want to try these things. We will teach you how to engage your audience using the 70/30 method so they can practice their new knowledge and skills.
✨ The best facilitators know how to keep the focus on the main take-away, and they know how to facilitate some of the best conversations. ✨ More importantly, they know how to give instructions. (It sounds so simple, but you’ve been given bad instructions from an unpracticed facilitator before!)
✨ One other thing: We will walk you through how to make your big concepts stay sticky and highly memorable for your participants. Did you know there are five things you can do to make your work stick with your audience?
We only have 40 seats for this event and there are only a few weeks left to sign up, so click on the registration link at https://lnkd.in/gca2-3S4 to secure your seat!
