Moving groups through tough decisions can be tricky, if not impossible, without a skilled and well-trained facilitator to hold folks through the process. Laird Schaub joins us today to talk about the how’s and why’s of excellent facilitation. You'll learn from his 40+ years of lived community experience and training in facilitation, and leave with practices you can use in your community conversations.

Laird leads a two-year facilitation training program where students meet eight times for intensive 3-day weekends. In addition to classroom time where he teaches the elements of skilled facilitation, half the time is spent preparing for, delivering, and debriefing live facilitation, where the students run the meetings and the trainers are a safety net.
