Benefits for Participants

This
transformational learning experience is a forum for exploring the relationship
between leadership and participation that builds on your every day challenges
as a basis for practice.  You will learn
to set and maintain strategic direction and momentum while enabling people to
participate, take risks, innovate and own the outcomes. As a result of your
attendance your organisation or community will experience increased
productivity, more ownership and alignment, deeper relationships and levels of
commitment and more effective participation in interagency collaborations and
community based partnerships.

Facilitative Leadership is built around seven key
leadership practices.  These are:

Share
an Inspiring Vision - communicating your vision in a way that inspires and enrolls team members in its pursuit

Focus
on Results, Process and Relationships - recognising that success is
measured across three dimensions; results (achievement of goals), process (how
the work gets done) and relationships (cultivating trust and respect in the
community/workplace)

Seek
Maximum Appropriate Involvement - building commitment and improving the quality
of decisions by getting maximum appropriate stakeholder
involvement in the decision making process

Facilitate Agreement - strategies and skills for
keeping team meetings on track and gaining consensus from stakeholders with
disparate points of view and needs; an understanding of how leaders add value
to group processes without necessarily having to be content experts or decision
makers

Design
Pathways to Action - a collaborative project planning tool that maps out a
series of conversations and their objectives to help teams (stakeholders) move
from their current situation to their desired future state

Coach
for Performance - a coaching model that focuses on how managers and employees share
responsibility for the success of coaching interventions and results not only
in performance improvement, but also in an employee with an increased sense of
personal satisfaction with his/her work

Celebrate
Accomplishment - building an environment which recognises the contributions of
employees by conveying appreciation and value for them and which acknowledges
them in a meaningful way.

In
this workshop, you will specifically learn to:

·       
Create a vision of
success and enrol others in its pursuit 

·       
Lead collaborative
planning and problem solving discussions 

·       
Decide who should
be involved in making decisions & how to involve them 

·       
Coach and inspire
others to perform at their best 

·       
Design meetings,
project plans and change strategies with concrete milestones and clear
accountability that people understand and support 

·       
Consider the three
dimensions of success: results, process, and relationships 

·       
Celebrate
accomplishment in authentic and motivating ways 

When
you complete the Facilitative
Leadership® workshop, you will have greater confidence in your ability to
navigate difficult situations, advocate for change and lead collaborative
processes. You will be able to make and implement decisions more quickly and
have more influence over your own and others’ success.
