Seeds of Resistance - Great Meeting Facilitation

Great Meeting Facilitation
Wednesday, February 1st
5-8pm
SLC (Student Life Centre) Room 2143- University of Waterloo

A major part of social change work is lots of meetings. Meetings can be inspiring, hellish, or somewhere in between. The quality of a meeting depends a lot on good facilitation. Facilitators aren't supposed to run the show, and they do more than keep track of who wants to speak. In this workshop you'll learn and practice some steps, tools, techniques and approaches that can help you effectively facilitate meetings - and that includes those difficult meetings.

About the facilitator: Jessica Bell is a trainer and facilitator. She is a lecturer in the non-profit and voluntary sector management program at Ryerson University, and a trainer with Tools for Change and the Ruckus Society.
