About This Training
Facilitation is one of the most transferable skills in any organisation - and one of the most underdeveloped. Most people run meetings. Very few actually facilitate them.
This training teaches your people how to design and hold sessions that produce real outcomes. Whether you're training team leads, project managers, or HR business partners, participants leave with a repeatable facilitation toolkit they can use the very next week.
We design every session around your team's context - the kinds of meetings they run, the challenges they face, and the level of experience they're starting from.
Choose Your Format
Half-day or full-day
built around your team
Half-day intensive
A focused, practical session that gives participants the core facilitation toolkit — designed to slot into a working day without disrupting the whole team.
The facilitator mindset:
Understanding the shift from presenter to facilitator and what it changes in the room
Session design fundamentals:
How to structure any session around purpose, process, and participant energy
Live practice rounds:
Participants facilitate short segments with real-time peer and coach feedback
Handling disruption & silence:
Practical tools for when the room goes off-track, flat, or resistant
Personal action plan:
Each participant identifies one session they will redesign and run differently
Teams short on time who need a practical toolkit fast, or as a warm-up before the full-day programme.
RECOMMENDED
Full-day deep dive
The complete facilitation skills experience. Multiple design and practice cycles, harder challenges, and a full playbook participants can use from day one.
Facilitation audit:
An honest self-assessment of current habits and gaps to calibrate the day
Session design lab:
Build a real upcoming session from scratch using the Fridaymakers framework
First practice round:
Facilitate a live segment — observed, coached, and debriefed by the group
Advanced facilitation tools:
Diverge/converge, dot voting, silent brainstorm, live synthesis, and conflict facilitation
Second practice round:
A harder brief: ambiguous room, resistant participant, no clear agenda
Remote & hybrid facilitation:
Adapting the full toolkit for distributed teams and digital collaboration tools
Personal facilitation playbook:
A documented, role-specific approach each participant takes away and can use immediately
Teams investing seriously in facilitation as a capability – managers, L&D leads, project owners, and anyone running regular working sessions.
