| Introduction
to the Art of Facilitation |
With Laird Schaub and Ma'ikwe Ludwig
March 21, 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. at Heathcote Community in Freeland,
MD
Cost: Sliding Scale $50 - $150
|
| Do meetings frustrate you? Is the facilitation so passive that meetings
are like walking through molasses and progress takes forever? Is the
facilitation so controlling that people feel like they've been run over by
a truck (or that the decisions were already made behind closed doors and
the meeting is just a rubber stamp)? Do you dream of meetings where the
group feels energized, engaged, and solid decisions get made? Help is on
the way! The husband and wife duo of Laird Schaub and Ma'ikwe Ludwig will
be offering a one-day workshop that provides an overview of the art of
Integrative Facilitation, introducing participants to the essential
orientation and skill set needed to turn pain into gain in cooperative
groups. |
