No matter your role in the organization, developing effective facilitation skills will help you make your best contribution toward group endeavors and support others to do the same.
When navigating complicated or complex environments, groups need to be able to work together effectively to achieve common goals.
In such cases, skilled facilitation can really help but it needs more than a few formulaic processes. It also requires skills in communication, building and maintaining rapport, and understanding and managing group dynamics well.
