Facilitation & Training

Facilitation

No matter how expert in-house staff are at planning and running meetings, there are often times when organisations identify a need for an external facilitator – someone to bring independence, neutrality, and a new perspective.

Our facilitation team works with clients to plan and run outcome-focused meetings. These range from stakeholder consultations, strategic planning sessions with company Boards/CEOs, to management workshops and departmental-wide planning days.

Prior to the meeting, we help:

• identify/confirm the purpose of the workshops and desired outcomes
• identify attendees and develop the agenda
• design the group processes to attain the desired results

During the meeting, we:

• keep the meeting on track and manage the group process
• encourage participation from all and foster solutions
• note unresolved issues for later debate

Post the meeting, if required, we:

• write up the key outcomes/results
• provide counsel on addressing unresolved issues

Training

Day & Hodge Associates also conducts workshops to support and enhance in-house communications skills. These workshops are individually tailored to client needs and include:

• How to develop a Communications Plan
• Effective lobbying
• Stakeholder engagement
• Media release writing
• Email etiquette
