The document also lists techniques facilitators should and should not use to moderate discussions and engage participants.
Here are some potential responses a facilitator might have for those situations:
- When one group member seems to do most of the talking, I might gently redirect questions to others or set a time limit for each speaker.
- When an individual is silent for a long period of time, I could ask for their perspective to bring them into the discussion.
- When someone in the team "puts down" another member, I might redirect by reframing comments positively and reinforcing respect among members.
- When a group seems to want to reach a decision but is unable to, I might reflect back key considerations and gently guide them towards consensus using a decision tool.
- When someone comes late, I might briefly

Coaching involves improving employee performance through planned learning opportunities guided by a coach. It helps someone perform skills better with the goal of bringing work improvements. Coaching is ongoing and interactive, providing guidance to encourage productive decisions while allowing coachees ownership. A coach's role is to understand issues, set goals, provide tools for coachees to develop solutions independently, and support them through mistakes. Building a coaching culture benefits individuals through customized learning, teams by focusing on goals, and organizations by developing relationships and discovering new ways to help people grow. Good coaches have strong interpersonal skills, observe and interpret situations creatively, and have confidence in others' abilities. Coaching opportunities arise when advice is sought, mistakes are made, or performance
This document discusses how to conduct effective meetings. It begins by defining what a meeting is and explaining that most meetings are unproductive, with people daydreaming or being distracted. It then outlines the costs of unproductive meetings, in both direct financial costs and lost productivity. The document proposes a framework for effective meetings that includes planning the meeting, conducting it, and following up afterwards. Key aspects of planning include defining the purpose and participants, and creating an agenda. Conducting effectively involves outlining goals, managing discussion, and reaching closure. Follow up requires distributing minutes, ensuring commitments are met, and planning future steps. The document also provides etiquette tips for participating in meetings productively.
In healthcare organizations, it is mission critical that leaders and managers possess the skills to deliver direct, honest feedback to supervisees and peers. Currently, many managers receive minimal training on how to provide concrete feedback plus coaching that can help team members improve their performance. As a result, many supervisees receive feedback that is conflicting, confusing, or no feedback at all. In this workshop, Grace Ng will discuss the current challenges in giving and receiving feedback, provide frameworks and tools that can be applied in feedback conversations, and share her vision for moving towards a culture of feedback and learning.

Creek Stewart discusses his philosophy as a survival instructor. At his core, he believes in teaching practical survival skills that can be applied in real-world scenarios. The most important aspect of survival is the mental side - specifically, not giving up, being innovative, and eliminating negative thoughts. He recommends the first step in disaster preparation is assembling a bug out bag with the essentials of shelter, water, fire, and food. While survival situations cannot be fully controlled, controlling one's mental state is key to avoiding poor decisions caused by fear and panic.

Leveraging Data to Make the Case for Bonner Like Programs.pdfBonner Foundation
This document discusses leveraging data to expand community engagement programs like Bonner Scholars on college campuses. It summarizes a study conducted at Stetson University that analyzed retention data to understand factors influencing whether students return after one semester or year. The study found that costs, engagement, academic preparation, and background all impacted retention. It suggests using this data to enhance existing programs and create new "Bonner-like" programs, with the goal of having 20% of students participating by 2027. Participants are then asked to discuss how they could conduct a similar study and expand community engagement opportunities on their own campuses.
This session aims promote learning and exchange of ideas on
how we can help students all across campus pursue careers
with purpose and meaning, especially ones that make the world
a better place. The session will engage students in a dialogue
about career goals, academic study, service experience, career
support, and group discussions based on career interests.
This opening session sets the stage for a dynamic and informative
conference focused on driving positive social change. We'll be
inspired and rooted in a sense of place by President Floyd and our
student speakers then dive into two frameworks focused on
equipping individuals to be change agents in their communities.
Participants can expect to gain valuable insights, engage in
thought-provoking discussions and be inspired by the stories of
those who work towards moving the metaphorical mountains of
social inequality, injustice, and systemic challenges.
This is What Democracy Looks Like Powerbuilding -- Cali VanCleveBonner Foundation
Community organizing has always played a prominent role in the nonprofit world. But what about long-term, sustainable activism work? Power building is a newer sect of community organizing in which people can organize around a certain issue creating power within targeted communities. The Tennessee Immigrant and Refugee Rights Coalition (TIRRC) and its 501(c)(4) TIRRC Votes has created a movement across the state, and they build power within our immigrant and refugee communities through voter engagement and services such as legal aid, educational resources, etc. It is vital to recognize the diverse forms in which we can organize around election cycles beyond simply registering people to vote. If you're interested in either immigrant and refugee rights, voter engagement, or unconventional means of organizing, this would be the place for you!

17. The Flow…
!“Today, we’ll discuss what workshops should we
have for our annual training? We only have space
and time for three sessions.”

insights from the survey, and narrow down to the
top 6 choices today.”
