About this Event

Step into your power as a facilitator! Whether you host workshops, lead meetings, run events, or hold space for groups, this hands-on workshop will give you more confidence, clarity, and practical tools to support your growth when working with groups.

Unlocking Facilitation is a participatory workshop exploring the core skills, mindset, and presence that makes great facilitation possible. Designed for both emerging and experienced facilitators, this session blends experiential learning with reflection - giving you space to explore who you are as a facilitator: your strengths, challenges, and unique style. 
✨ This workshop is for you if:

You host groups, meetings or events and want to feel more confident doing it
You find yourself in the role of facilitator — intentionally or by accident — and want to build your skills
You face tricky challenges “in the room” and would like to learn how to respond better
You’d like to connect with a community of likeminded peers
You’re already facilitating professionally - and want to keep improving on your practice
Whether you’re just starting out or already leading groups, you’ll leave with fresh insights and confidence to take your facilitation to the next level.
💡 You’ll walk away with:

A clear understanding of what facilitation is 
Greater confidence in your strengths and unique facilitator style
Better awareness of your areas for growth and improvement
Practical tools and techniques you can use immediately
A supportive network of peers and likeminded facilitators
