Meeting Design and Facilitation - Overview

Facilitation is a core skill and competency for many OD interventions, and all of our team members are highly experienced and skilled in many techniques. We will work with you to clarify meeting purpose, objectives, and deliverables and create a meeting design to efficiently and effectively meet your needs. We are experienced in designing and facilitating both in person and virtual meetings using web-based technology. All facilitation engagements by THA begin with a key stakeholder discussion to determine the meeting objectives and most effective facilitation approach. Once the structure has been established, the meeting purpose is further refined, objectives or expected action plans identified, and invitations are sent. THA will provide facilitation with the possibility of some meeting attendees providing specific supporting roles such as process observer, time-keeper, and notes-taker, where appropriate.

Facilitation for Team Effectiveness

Our facilitation approach focuses on the acknowledgement of everyone being a contributor, permits a team to deal with complex issues more effectively, creatively, and efficiently, and brings a focus to team dynamics. The process enables groups to build consensus and create an action plan in productive meetings with participant buy-in. We facilitate a wide variety of meetings ranging from department meetings to citizen meetings, a professional team building workshop and an emotional intelligence workshop, dealing with everything from strategic planning to implementation.

Graphic Facilitation graphic icon

Given the emerging landscape, it is especially important to leverage the idea of visual thinking as a way to GET EVERYONE ON THE SAME PAGE! Graphic Facilitation is a visual thinking process that helps to create understanding because when we begin to see patterns and combine ideas in new ways, we see things more clearly, innovate and problem solve together. Often when we can SEE a pattern,we can understand the solution to a problem. Here’s an important fact! Of the people in your meetings, 85% are visual learners, and that number will continue to climb. We are in fact experiencing an active VISUAL REVOLUTION! If you are tasked with making meaningful decisions fast and you have less time to reflect, then you need a new solution.

Graphic Facilitation is used in many group processes, a few listed below:
  • Identifying critical issues and solutions
  • Roles, expectations and core compeTencies
  • Brainstorming
  • Story mapping
  • Ideation
  • Appreciative Inquiry
  • Strategic planning
  • Vision/Mission
  • Environmental scan
  • Current state/Future state
