About the authors
Introduction
Heard on the street : the audience does know!
The audience doesn?t lie
It's about time!
It all begins with courage
Keys to facilitate fearlessly
And on a final and very important note
Organic facilitation
Organic facilitation is less known
Organic facilitation is healthier in the long run
Organic facilitation takes time to perfect (or, actually, make appear imperfect)
Intimacy is key
The fourth wall
The wall it's ok to break
Food, fun, and safety
Tools for your fearless tool bag
Rules for breaking the wall
Dance naked! : the wisdom is in the room
How to work (and not work) the room
How fred friedman broke the fourth wall
Have fun with one or with one hundred
Take it professionally, not personally
As you begin, notice who is "with" you through their reactions, eye contact, or what seems to be working, even in a small way
Be ready to adapt
Know that you can't win them all
Yes, facilitation works with very large audiences!
Adapting to an unexpectedly small audience
Coach's comments
Dialogue not monologue (worse, duologue)
Conversation is not easy for most
Can you converse without a cocktail?
Conversation: begin at the beginning
The break is never really a break
Dialogue during your meeting
Dialogue post-meeting
Coach's comments
The set-up: making it happen
The learning environment
You can always facilitate, no matter the circumstances
Lessons from one executive?s transformation
Coach's comments
Listen live, then disappear!
What oprah and larry know
What the best do not do
What the journalist uncovers
What the orchestra conductor knows
What the sales professional knows
Really good facilitators use these questions
Really good facilitators avoid these questions
What listening live is not
Timing is everything
Your natural resources
Coach's comments
Go with it!
Take what they give you
Trust!
When you know more and they came to hear it
When you need to (and should) keep emotion at bay
When you can?t think and hit at the same time
Home run!
Coach's comments
It's about the audience, first and always, in all ways!
What a ninety-one-year-old knows
What a professional magician knows
What an eighth-grade teacher knows
What engineers know
Connection is never perfection
What the professional comedian knows
Audiences will react differently to the same story
Avoid death by committee
Yikes! a whole room full of
When times go less well than planned
People and groups who exhibit predictable challenges
People who are disconnected
Only one person to facilitate
In your writing, especially when you need to persuade
Gaining traction
Keeping momentum
When all else fails . . . people who won?t change, no matter what
Conclusion: now is the beginning of your new skill
Appendix a: sure things : eight discussion topics that never fail
Appendix b: four keys to making it easier
Appendix c: momentum magic
Appendix d: oops! when meetings don?t go so well
Appendix e: techniques for teleconference and virtual meeting facilitation.
