The advantages of using an external facilitator are that they come with no baggage or history, but a determination to get results at the end of the day. They look out for everyone in the room, actively listen to them, have empathy, and make them feel valued for their contribution.

An external facilitator has a goal and a remit and makes sure all areas of it are covered, without being deviated by distractors or office politics. As an external they are able to ask the difficult questions and confront the elephant in the room.

They observe, question, challenge and bring another perspective to issues and help delegates create their own solutions. They are able to work with disruptive behaviour and bring focus back to the issue in hand.

Unbiased

Using an external, unbiased, and objective facilitator to progress workshops, training days, disputes, contractor:client meetings, and creative blue-skies sessions.

On boarding

Helping new teams ‘on board’, or shift focus to new projects.
