WHY USE AN EXTERNAL FACILITATOR?
Our clients use us as external facilitators for a range of reasons.
First, we're expert at putting a group at ease and creating a safe space for discussion.
Second, it's a lot easier for you to participate in a workshop if you don't have the stress of running it.
And finally, we're independent - that means no hidden agenda or biases to influence the direction of the conversation - and we can call things as we see them.
TYPES OF WORKSHOPS WE SUPPORT
You can hire a facilitator for a classic workshop, where everyone will attend in face-to-face in the same room. We're also experienced at virtual delivery, if you need an online workshop. Or, if you need a mix of both, no problem - we've done plenty of hybrid sessions too.
Face to face
Classic workshop with all participants attending in real life, in the same room
Online

Hybrid
Some people in the same room, others dialling in remotely
