Cracking Facilitation (2024)

Day 1 – Cracking Sessions

 

Day 2 – Open Space

Theme: How can facilitation help crack-open the big issues of our time?

As facilitators we work with diverse communities and ideas. We support collaboration, we untangle conflict, we build capacity and alignment, we sit with discomfort, and assist others to do so, and we celebrate wisdom and insight as it emerges! Through our very presence in a group we are ‘change makers’. In an increasingly complex, individualistic and fast paced world these are extraordinary gifts.

We invited participants to examine the potential of facilitation to help crack-open the big issues of our time, using the powerful facilitative process of open space technology.

    –  What are the big issues: for you, your community, and your world?
    –  What does it mean to ‘crack-open’ big issues?
    –  How can facilitation (and facilitators) help through our presence and processes?

Open Space Technology is a creative, empowering and transformative facilitation process. Rather than pre-determining the agenda, content and facilitators, Open Space Technology entrusts the group to identify what is important and how they work on this, individually and collectively. Open Space Technology is not a ‘free for all’; there is an emphasis on individual responsibility, freedom of choice and respect for others. Simple and powerful guiding principles support intentional conversations, shared learning, and creates space for emergence!
