Facilitation is fast becoming a core competency for anyone who leads a team or even participates on a team. High developed facilitation skills dramatically improve a teams ability to identify the right issues and work through them effectively and efficiently. A good facilitator can adeptly keep a team focused on and shift gears between achieving their goals, the process and the content of the group conversation. They also know when, and how, to stop the conversation and help resolve interpersonal issues that may be getting in the way of the team moving forward.
