Let’s be honest: most people hate meetings.
Many are time wasters, and others can be contentious and difficult. In many cases, decisions are often not made or documented, a certain few people monopolize the discussion, and often, only a few people may support the decisions.
An effectively facilitated session eliminates or minimizes these problems.
A "facilitated session" is a meeting whereby someone - typically not the meeting leader - is responsible for structuring and implementing the meeting and its activites.
For instance, this person would not be responsible for meeting content, but instead could be responsible for identifying goals and barriers, keeping the process moving, bringing in quiet members, intervening if a participant dominates, generate new ideas, getting group commitment, next steps, etc.
When groups have an effective facilitator, they avoid many of the pitfalls we have all experienced in meetings and working sessions.
A facilitated session can be more productive, less time consuming, and result in increased commitment by the group to the output of the session. It helps eliminate off-tangent discussions, wasted effort, conflicts that prevent progress and dominance by a few individuals – and keeps your team focused on what counts: achieving team goals.
