Facilitation Skills [FACILITATION TECHNIQUES AND SECRETS]

[@AdrianaGirdler]

Thanks for watching! Do you have any facilitation skills or secrets to add? Cheers!

[@heathercunningham4824]

This is a 5 minute video that anyone facilitating a meeting should watch. Great outline of the facilitation skills that make for great meetings. I've been in many failed meetings that were just a waste of time. I especially liked the skill to go over action items at the end of the meeting and ensure that responsibility and due date are assigned and understood. This really propels a project forward with purpose!

[@AdrianaGirdler]

No one wants to be in a meeting that goes no where. Having a clear objective from the start and following these facilitation skills and techniques will have your meetings running smoothly and with purpose. Thanks for watching, cheers!

[@KristinaKushner]

I believe staying within the meeting timeframe is absolutely a golden rule for every meeting. Thank you for outlining this!

[@AdrianaGirdler]

I absolutely agree. It's so easy for meetings to get off track which is why I like to use the parking lot for topics that require discussion at a later date. Thanks for watching, cheers!

[@laurenbelayneh]

This video was so needed! Leading a meeting is nerve wracking and having great facilitation skills is so key!

[@AdrianaGirdler]

Thanks for watching, having great facilitation skills will help ease the nerves and will have your meeting running like clock work. Cheers!

[@cinto1394]

1. Be prepared (subject, objective, things needed for meeting, time allocation) 2. Detailed agenda (objectives & agenda). Send max 2 days prior to meeting. 3. Set ground rules 4. Involve everyone 5. Stay on time (be a time keeper) 6. Action items (responsibility & due date)

[@AdrianaGirdler]

Thank you for watching and taking the time to comment. Cheers!

[@TiidiiLivingwithSabrina]

I live your energy on camera! If I was working in an organization I would totally be the facilitator. I do all this stuff naturally

[@AdrianaGirdler]

That's fantastic! Thank you for your kind words and for watching, cheers!

[@NissySlim]

I do this too, makes me a lot more relaxed knowing I have notes and topics to cover before each meeting.

[@AdrianaGirdler]

[@willowmoon4866]

Thank you., today I had my first Facilitator experience. It was targeted at 1 hour 25 minutes but it stretched out to two hours. After 3/4 of the group left it continued for another hour. I truly appreciate your advice and know hopefully I will be able to find your link and get my timing in order.

[@AdrianaGirdler]

Sometimes these things happen and it is through doing and then making notes on how to change things up for the next time that will help with your timing. It's all about experience and know that you've got this! Thanks for watching, cheers!

very important to have the video on during meetings. it is just another way to show that you are invested and always willing to put in the work by holding yourself accountable!

[@AdrianaGirdler]

I am all about making sure everyone has their video on. It really makes sure everyone stays engaged. There is not point in having a meeting if the entire team isn't front and center and all contributing. Thanks for watching! Cheers!

Like how you stress out the necessity of clear objective! Seems like it is obvious, but not to everyone. So important that all stakeholders understand why they meet.

One of the important skills of facilitator is to be a good listener to keep the audience on track and encourage them for more contruion leading by questions

[@AdrianaGirdler]

As a facilitator we expect those in the meeting to be listening and on point so I agree it's so important the the facilitator listens well so they can drive the meeting smoothly and productively. Thanks so much for watching, cheers!

Thank you Steve, and thanks for watching, cheers!

[@alexborg3311]

Very clear video. Do you have any tips about paraphrasing during workshops? Often what people are trying to communicate is not very clear, or they may not be great public speakers, so the facilitator should help by paraphrasing and confirming what is being expressed.

[@AdrianaGirdler]

Thanks for watching. I don’t have a separate video just on that topic but my latest upload does address this skill and gives an example. Check out ‘Meeting Facilitation Skills ( favourite facilitation techniques). Cheers.

Hi Andriana, I have a question and is very urgent. How do you prepare yourself for facilitating training.

Are you the one doing the training or are you attending facilitation training?

[@CarolMould]

i agree - if we're not clear on the objective then we really shouldn't be having the meeting

[@AdrianaGirdler]

Absolutely! It's amazing how much time and productivity is wasted when a meeting isn't facilitated properly. Having an objective is the first step and yes, if you don't have one then there is no point in a meeting. Thanks for watching, cheers!
