Group and Team Facilitation
Many teams and groups can benefit from an outside facilitator to help them meet their stated goals. Whether your team is a board of directors or a project team or a department it is possible to lose sight of the objective, get bogged down in process or held up by politics and in-fighting; it is the job of a skilled facilitator to help the group move beyond such hurdles and to be more effective as a ‘team’ and reach their objective on time and to budget.
Typically an external facilitator can add value either when a group is newly formed or when one that has been going for sometime is struggling to be effective. The skilled facilitator can guide the group through the process of becoming effective and being an outsider can offer perspective, identify strengths and weaknesses, and provide creative new suggestions for sustaining a healthy group dynamic. Whether a group needs teambuilding, meeting management or problem solving, several strategies can be employed to improve or sustain a high level of functioning.
StellaNova Consulting draws on a background of senior level general management, experiential learning facilitation both indoors and outdoors, leadership and team building to help your ‘team’ become more effective. We use a variety of tools and techniques, models and theories to illustrate how and why your team is behaving as it is and introduce ways and means of making it become more effective.
