Have you ever attended a meeting where you felt like the facilitator was artful with their facilitation moves, so you were engaged and gained a great deal? Have you ever attended a meeting where you felt a pit in your stomach because of how participants weren’t heard or brought into the conversation? I had both experiences this week, in back to back Zoom meetings, and want to write about some of the moves that made the effective facilitation lead to a richer dialogue and sense of community. Both of the meetings took place with participants from across the United States. Participants were educators in Pre-K through college and beyond. We came from a diverse set of roles and cultural backgrounds.
