Whether its an important team meeting or a directors’ away day, having a thoughtful design and experienced facilitator can really improve your productivity.
“The experience was the best directors’ offsite meeting
we have ever held.It kept us out of our sometimes-dysfunctional
communication styles with each other.
We worked the issues, we listened to each other,
we had more equal participation across the whole group
than we typically do with other meeting styles.”
Bob Johansen, President, Institute for the Future
It can be a challenge for the group leader to pay balanced attention to both the content (what you want to achieve) and the process (how you get there).
“Mike’s easy style and expertise contributed to the
smooth running of the young person’s event by helping them
get clear the whole group intention.
This was very valuable and it was important that it was
delivered in the right way to this kind of group,
so thanks again for that!”
Jay Arnott, All Points North Project Worker, NERS
We can design and faciliate any event from a half day meeting to a five day conference and we guarantee your participants will be inspired. Here’s what some more happy participants said:
“The breathtaking aspect of this Open Space Fourm
was the shift towards action and self help.
I can’t remember being at a similar forum which,
in the end, produced so many concrete possibilities.”
Mary Bennan, The Glasgow Herald
“A conference for adults”
“Great idea! People actually got what they wanted
and not being dictated to”
“A very liberating experience.
The positives are many the negatives are few if not pointless.”
” We would have been a lot poorer without it (the Future Search Conference)
– the young people will never forget it.”
Jane Yeadon, formerly Chair of the Conference Planning
Everyone has proffered sound advice and put in a lot of
time and effort. Again thanks, it was you who gave us a sound start.”
Allan Kinross, MBA Programme Director, Glasgow University
“The planning group were fully involved in the creating
of the event. The way the facilitators worked throughout
the two days was excellent.”
“There is an energy, enthusiasm and commitment to work
together that wasn’t there before the event.
People in the voluntary sector have realized their own worth
and the value of the sector in its own right – The Future is Ours”
Janice Wilson, North Cumbria Voluntary Sector Steering Group
