Facilitation

Partners in Participation facilitation services include the following:

Participatory Strategic Planning uses ToP® methods for long and short–term planning that includes creating a three–to–five–year vision, identifying underlying contradictions that block the vision, defining two–year strategic directions, and developing one–year objectives and a 90–day implementation plan. The process builds consensus, achieves effective group communication, turns ideas into productive action, and shapes concrete accomplishments into a strategic plan.

Consensus Building and Collaborative Decision Making channels diverse ideas into productive consensus decisions, which everyone owns and supports.

Large and Small Group Discussions conduct focused discussions, meaningful exchanges of ideas, involving an entire group in thinking through difficult issues, an helping groups surface new ideas and solutions.

Mentoring Facilitators mentor facilitators in the use of participatory tools through preplanning, review of proposed methodologies, practice sessions, observation of work and debriefing of facilitated events.

Collaborative Action Planning uses the ToP® Action Planning method to create an effective implementation plan and calendar, organize needed resources, maximize group commitment and involvement, and mobilize the group's energy into action.

Creative Problem Solving tackles tough issues through a structured process, which engages active participation and teamwork to energize the problem solving process.

Meeting and Agenda Design/Event Planning uses ToP® methods to design and plan participatory meetings and events.

Culture Transformation uses historical scans, trend analyses, image shift and shaping, and organizational story–telling to address changes in mission, purpose and values.

Collaborative Ventures facilitates multi–agency endeavors and cross–functional teams to achieve common objective and complete cooperative projects.
