Here are three signs you need a professional facilitator:
You schedule unneeded dental surgery to avoid staff meetings.
Your action plans are all plan and no action.
When someone says “we need a strategic plan” you point at a random object and shout “Look! A UFO!”
If any of these sound familiar, don’t despair. You are not alone. Successful meetings do not just happen organically. Even the best and most talented people can feel lost and rudderless when it comes to leading a group, especially when attempting to craft strategy or deal with difficult issues.
The good news is that help is available! A professional facilitator will transform your meetings from endless, pointless, contentious time-wasters to focused, energized, innovative sessions with results and plans everyone owns and is committed to.
As luck would have it, I happen to be (ahem) just such a facilitator. And as such, it is my honor and my pleasure to navigate teams of all kinds through the meeting jungle in a way that enables full participation, builds ownership and creates energy and action.
If this sounds good to you, send me a message. I would love to talk to you about how I can help.
Or, you could just go through with that next root canal … the choice is yours!
