Facilitation
We understand the important role a skilled neutral facilitator plays in keeping your process running smoothly so that your group can stayed focused on what matters - the content.
Advantages of TeamCraft facilitation:
- Specialist knowledge of group dynamics
- We can customise processes and bring in specialist tools and techniques where needed
- Empathetic approach. Discussion is structured but not controlled - brings out all points of view
- Saves time - through allowing groups to work efficiently and creatively and make quality decisions
- Reduces fear of bias and builds trust
- Builds consensus and agreement more easily
- Builds a commitment to action
Examples of past facilitation assignments:
- Assisting a new senior management team to build trust as a group, align behind a unifying vision, and understand each others preferred way of working and communicating
- Assisting a team to generate ideas and develop plans to improve service delivery
- Leading a Senior team retreat and helping participants reflect on their progress to date, celebrate success, and identify ways to further improve results
- Facilitating "road shows" for a N.Z. wide organisation to roll out change strategy to staff and allow them to have questions answered and give input into the change process
- Assisting a maintenance team faced with redundancies to identify ways to restructure and add greater value to their organisation. Result - plan accepted and no redundancies
- Facilitating annual Strategic Planning sessions for a public sector organisation
- Assisting groups from across an organisation to debrief a "critical incident" in a way that avoided blame and recrimination and kept the focus on learning
