The need for facilitation skills is higher than ever as companies search for specialists who are professionally trained to effectively manage team interactions. However, very few are skilled to deliver the required outcomes - resulting in $000's of cost through time wasted and missed opportunities running ineffective meetings.
Dr. Edward de Bono's facilitation techniques do not scrutinise your delivery process. Instead, using a proven system and providing practical tools, the focus is on the thinking, planning and actions you can take to improve results:
- Supercharging productivity - reducing the time spent planning, creative problem-solving and conducting group thinking sessions, meetings and interactions.
- Confidently taking your skills from facilitator to practitioner - adding more variety to how you expand and distil the thinking needed to encourage collaboration in a proactive way.
- Accomplishing more and reach collective decisions faster - increasing engagement, gaining consensus and buy-in.
This instructor led workshop teaches practical tools: requires multiple, coached facilitation practices and includes many useful resources to support you in applying your new techniques :
- Executive portfolio with room for all your facilitator visuals

- Slide rules so participants can easily call to mind the steps in the de Bono thinking methods
- Capture cards for writing, sorting, and assessing ideas generated
- Energy dots to indicate top priority ideas and to measure buy-in on decisions made
