= Drumbeat Event Facilitation = | |||
A critical factor in Drumbeat Local events is how the proceedings are facilitated. This page provides an overview of event facilitation. | |||
== Overview == | |||
Facilitation is a challenging and inexact discipline. So much of "good" facilitation involves listening to participants and steering the agenda and individual sessions to meet their needs. | |||
== Facilitator Resources == | |||
There are several primary dimensions to consider in making facilitation plans for an event: | |||
* Facilitating and pacing the overall [[Event]] is essential to sustaining participant engagement and energy levels. | |||
* Facilitation of individual [[Drumbeat/events/kit/facilitation/sessions|Sessions]] is a broad topic, but a common thread is an emphasis on keeping the dialog accessible to all and driving towards the outcomes participants in each session have called out. | |||
* [[Drumbeat/events/kit/facilitation/guidelines|Facilitator Guidelines]] are useful for propagating best practices. | |||
* All facilitation is learning exercise in itself, and [[Drumbeat/events/kit/facilitation/evaluation|Evaluation]] is an essential component of any sustainable facilitation model. | |||
== Facilitator Training == | |||
Drumbeat facilitator trainings have been delivered in Toronto, Berlin and Sao Paulo to date. We encourage those with facilitation experience to consider training others. | |||
