Day 229 - Facilitation Skills

​FACILITATION SKILLS​
 
The greatest skill
of a facilitator
is to do nothing.
To let people talk,
together,
and allow them to find
the best way forward.
 
You see it’s not about
the facilitator,
nor indeed the topic.
It’s about enabling individuals
to move forward,
purposefully and securely,
together.
 
So as a facilitator,
be kind and smile.
Set the scene or task.
Encourage your groups
and then leave them to it.
Your best results come
when you do nothing.
