Facilitation Skills

In business today, managers and supervisors are not the only ones who need to be masterful in their facilitation skills. Professional service providers (e.g. lawyers, accountants and financial advisors) are frequently called on to facilitate meetings—between clients, their peers and various agencies. The same holds true for executives within non-profits, researchers, or up-and-coming stars within companies.

Successful facilitation requires operating principles that are established up front. Eloqui trains cutting edge, facilitation skills that include intention; how to set the tone; challenge everyone to participate and put forward their ideas; keep the pace of the meeting moving forward; manage conflict; and tactfully handle attendees who are problematic, speak too long or go off point.

Also included in this specialized training are team-building exercises to bring people together…The specifics of your role as the facilitator… and how to achieve the desired outcome in the briefest possible time.

Eloqui trainers are experienced facilitators who have researched the elements to successful meetings, and can share those elements with our clients.
