Thanks for watching! Comment below with your favourite qualities of a meeting facilitator?

[Dave-uwul]

Thanks good advice .. I facilitate and admire it being done well. One key issue I'd like to share is the responsibility of the facilitator to check the environment is conducive to results.. so no distracting noises nearby, temperature perfect, refreshments, toilet breaks at non key moments details that ensure concentration is not lost.

I am moving from production to strategy. Such a diffrent world!

[PracticalInspiration]

This was really important as I have to run and facilitate a number of meetings in my job. They're usually with clients so there is a little variation, but a lot of the key principles apply. Pre-meeting agendas are critical to set the plan and target outcome for the meeting, one of the best things to do imo. The other thing I tend to do is establish myself as the one running the meeting as soon as possible, this tends to be critical with clients, as there's no clear hierarchy or "boss" per se.

I enjoy doing PowerPoint presentation because it helps keep me on point and not improvising 😊

Hello Ma'm. I love your videos. Really straightforward and helpful. My peers, fellow facilitators, actually discussed this and truly learned a lot. God bless you always and more power on your channel ❤

Just subscribed to your channel ❤. I will be facilitating my first meeting on December 12 😊. I will give you feedback once done😊

Great intro! I’ve never felt comfortable with session rules. I need to follow through on this

[blandineeakking]

You should learn from Dee Scarano who is a really superstar facilitator.

[davidkinoti]

I love your videos, was an intern 3 months ago, and now have a job that involves me interacting with three department heads. Not a great arrangement methinks. We'll be having a meeting this Monday to iron our the management kinks and I'm the facilitator. Definitely learnt something!

[DalDhaliwalOfficial]
