Have you ever seen great ideas squelched by the deadening vacuum of a stuck group process or meeting? Or where the momentum of a brainstorm comes to a screeching halt after someone utters a sexist or racist comment? Or when the group splinters, no one seems happy and not one decision gets made?
Whether you’re a teacher, trainer, social activist / organizer, or business owner, if you’ve ever wondered why a group of lively humans would suddenly lose their energy and leave a brainstorm gathering you’ve facilitated feeling frustrated or dejected, this course — which draws on Nonviolent Communication, Holacracy, Interpersonal Neurobiology, and systems theory, among other tools — is for you.
Learn how to facilitate groups when the going gets tough, including how to:
- Make sure great ideas and powerful visions keep their life energy intact through a group process;
- Pivot and handle racism or sexism or any other isms that seem to derail the agenda;
- Keep the momentum when it seems impossible to keep everyone in the group happy;
- Harness the power of your group by keeping a laser focus on its purpose; and
- Open into a shared holding of power without letting consensus clog the gears.
