Facilitating with Purpose

The organization and running of a meeting can be most effective when you select a neutral facilitator to oversee the process side of things. Many major corporations train their employees to fulfill the role of facilitator, and then these individuals are borrowed away from other departments to assist with meetings.

A good facilitator will know the following:

Meeting Mangement•  How to agree to and enforce ground rules

•  Why some meeting members will stall on an agenda topic and how to get everyone to agree to move forward
•  Who should and shouldn't attend to ensure successful discussion

•  When to intervene to keep participants on topic

•  What effective methods will address disruptive members

•  How to promote follow-up to make a successful meeting lead to successful action
