What can we do…
to develop our own facilitation competence?
• Exercise continuous contracting
• Connecting and sharing
• Reading more
• Sharing and collaborate with other people in the
same field, as we did today :)
• Sharing practices/ examples around designing
remote sessions
• Connecting better in on-line
• Sharing and asking for perspectives from others
facilitators
• Access resources from IAF
• For me is to create interactive Jamboard like
the one you used in this session. At the
beginning I thought it is ppt :)
• Trying to watch or participate to real meetings ,
facilitated by experienced facilitators
• Take the competencies in the consideration
when I am going to plan a facilitated session
• Explore more online tools to replace F2F types
of interaction
• Connect with the audience while struggling to
use the online methods
• Get better at facilitating shorter sessions (e.g.
max 30 min sessions)
• I would learn from my younger colleagues how
to act online, as I haven't had the chance yet
• To choose max 3 clear objectives/session and
keep the time.
