Mastering Meeting Facilitation – October 2026

Wed, October 14 @ 8:30 am - Thu, October 15 @ 4:30 pm EDT

Gain the skills and tools to run productive and engaging meetings in this two-day workshop.  

Why meeting facilitation matters

You’ve likely seen these stats or felt their impact:

  • A whopping 72% of meetings are ineffective.
  • U.S. businesses lose $37 billion annually to unproductive meetings.
  • Employees spend an average of 31 hours per month in unproductive meetings.

But it doesn’t have to be that way. Good facilitation can transform the way your team works, collaborates, and makes decisions.

What you’ll gain from Mastering Meeting Facilitation
  • Practical teaching and insights on:
    • The role of a facilitator
    • Structuring and running an effective meeting
    • Team building and boosting engagement
    • Guiding better decision-making
    • Managing meeting dominators
    • Optimizing physical and virtual meeting spaces
    • And more!
  • Examples and modeling of best practices, techniques, and essential skills by professional facilitators
  • Hands-on facilitation practice, with real-time coaching and feedback from instructors and peers
  • Personalized guidance as you design and prepare to lead a meeting of your choosing
  • A comprehensive workbook with worksheets, tips, and readings to help you implement everything you’ve learned

As a bonus, you’ll discover how facilitation skills can enhance other parts of your life because all relationships – including friendships, marriages, or parenting – benefit from the same tools that produce good facilitation and dialogue.
