Facilitation Skills
Introduction
Meetings involve individuals from diverse backgrounds and levels in every organisation. Each individual bringing to the meeting arena various skills, knowledge and attitudes. In addition, often as not, their own agenda. For meetings to be both effective and productive individuals that are charged with the responsibility of organising and chairing meetings must demonstrate key skills. This workshop covers such key aspects and allows delegates to explore appropriate tools and techniques.
