Purpose

Interested in creating a rockin' group process?

Need some tools and strategies to make meetings more fulfilling?

Come to the *Facilitation Workshop* by FACILITRON -- part of the Rising Tide monthly workshop series -- Sunday, December 4th, 2-6pm Laughing Horse Books, 12 NE 10th Ave.

Snacks provided!

This will be a hands-on, participatory workshop on how to facilitate a good group process. There are too many meetings in the world that are draining, unfocused and disempowering. Bad meeting dynamics are not conducive to inspired collective action -- and inspired collective action is what we want! There are lots of things you can do before, during, and after meetings to help your group process run smoothly, be effective, use time well, and build solid relationships.

In this workshop we will discuss the role of the facilitator, talk about what this role is and what it's not, and share some facilitation tools that can help foster effective, efficient and energizing meetings. We'll be putting facilitation strategies into practice, so come ready to participate! All experience levels welcome.

Invite friends!
