Facilitation Master classes – online – back for 2022!

In this collection of online Advanced Facilitation Master Classes, we’ve identified five of the key issues facilitators struggle with and the corresponding competencies that enable truly transformative group work. Register for all 5 and save.

“Beck and Jane bring the key concepts of process work to life in this fabulously stimulating, challenging and practical program. Thoroughly recommend it to facilitators, group workers and leaders of all types”

“The content of this masterclass is so important for anyone in facilitation or leadership groups. It approaches the complex challenges of facilitation with appropriate amounts of compassion and critical thinking, using examples, references and group discussion to land the information in ways that are relevant and meaningful”

“Very powerful, useful, clear and challenging”

Facilitators Innerwork

Tues 22 March 2022

9.30am-12.30pm (AEDT)

Facilitators get attacked in almost every group they work in.
Subtle (and not so subtle) leadership attacks and criticism can knock you out and trigger internal feelings of inadequacy and incompetence that can make it near impossible to do your work well. In this class, learn Inner Work techniques to stay-in-the-game and respond to attacks in productive and transformative ways.

Understanding Role Dynamics in Groups

Tues 5 April 2022

9.30am-12.30pm (AEDT)

Groups often involve both visible and invisible dynamics formed through the intersection of competing forces such as context and personal and collective history. This class considers these dynamics through the framework of ‘roles’, parts or perspectives – those that we know and can see and those that whilst hidden are highly influential. In this class, learn how to diagnose the roles present to understand and predict dynamics, depersonalise issues to create safety and inform your choices of intervention to best serve the direction of the group’s growth.

Working at the Learning Edge

Tues 26 April 2022

9.30am-12.30pm (AEST)

When facilitators fail to work with groups right on their learning edge, transformative change just isn’t possible.
Groups get bored and come up with short-term, shallow solutions that don’t stick, and facilitators feel dissatisfied and get burnt out.
This class will help you discern the structure of any groups’ learning process and how to keep them on their learning edge so you can facilitate truly transformative change.

Negotiating Agreement

Tues 10 May, 2022

9.30am-12.30pm (AEST)

Transformative group work centres around the agreements groups make together. Agreements about the nature of the issues, the directions of change, and the strategies to achieve that change are all key stages in group work.
Unfortunately, the social pressure of groupthink, combined with time and resource pressures (on both the participants and the facilitators) often means people make agreements that they don’t fully agree with.
In this class, learn how to see the no in the yes to facilitate deeply congruent agreements in groups.

Power, Rank and Privilege in the Facilitator Role

Tues 24 May, 2021

9.30am-12.30pm (AEST)

The facilitator role is characterised by complex, intersecting high and low-rank positions. When we are not aware of these positions – the different ways we have more and less power than people in the groups we work with – we are vulnerable to misusing our power and becoming a tyrant, victim, or rescuer to the group.
This class will help you unpack the different rank characteristics of the facilitator role and how to use these to benefit your groups, and your own wellbeing and sustainability.
