Facilitation and Presentation Skills Anyone who manages people needs the ability to facilitate successful discussion
resulting in sustainable agreement. Sometimes, too, we need to present our ideas
persuasively, either to communicate ideas efficiently or as a springboard for
discussion. This course will be valuable to anyone who deals with decision making
with various levels of stakeholders. Community-level facilitators, trainers and
managers will all benefit from this training.
Over the five days a range of areas essential to effective facilitation, managing
group dynamics and effective presentation are introduced and practised. The
workshop is participatory, with frequent opportunities for applying the tools.
The exact contents of the training are fine-tuned in response participants'
needs and daily feedback. Key areas covered include essential theoretical aspects
such as:
The 'What and Why' of Facilitation
The Role and Qualities of a Facilitator
Harnessing Group Potential
Adult Learning
The Dynamics of Group Decision-making
Principles for Building / Facilitating Sustainable Agreements
Essentials of Presentation skills
Preparation and Effective Presentation: Tips and Tools
During the course, participants learn and practise:
Facilitation tools such as Brainstorming, Buzz Groups, Focus Group Discussion,
Obstacle Analysis and Solution Matrix
Facilitation techniques such as card collection, brainstorming, group formation,
case studies and field visits
Facilitative listening skills / techniques for honouring all points of view
