Editor's Notes

  • #3 Inspired by a blog post, inspired by the IAF London MeetUp. Hands up if you have Read the blog post Used ORID or Taken the GFM course … Nb: Principle = a fundamental truth or proposition that serves as the foundation for a system of belief or behaviour or for a chain of reasoning.
  • #4 In pairs or trios first? O: Your name & location R: What first came to your mind when you read or heard ‘universal principle of facilitation’? I: What common themes have we heard? What does this tell us about what we might learn from each other? D: Something of your hopes for the session?
  • #6 What do facilitators do, really? What do you recall from the clip - words or phrases, images, characters, music, etc.? How did you react - surprised or intrigued, familiar, reminded of experience? So what - how relevant are the metaphors, what insights could you apply, what would add, what would you learn or practice? What next – what will you do differently as a result of this conversation?
