Goal-Setting Workshop: Creating actions with Me/We/Us and Blossom

What’s in this chapter:

• Case study: The action stage of the 3-stage goal-setting workshop. The objective of this stage is for the group to create steps to follow to reach their larger goals.

• Tools: Me/We/Us, Blossom, One Breath

How this helps you:

You will learn to facilitate an action planning session that creates concrete results and outlines the who, what, and when for each action. These actions are also related back to the content created in earlier stages of the workshop to create a unified plan that spans from the broad goals all the way to the specific actions that will achieve them.

Handbook of Professional Facilitation

In the Handbook of Professional Facilitation: Theory, Tools, and Design, Pepe Nummi—a facilitator with decades of experience working with groups - introduces a unique approach to group decision-making based on structured dialogue. People tend to shoot down new ideas, especially if the idea is not their own. Pepe Nummi is a seasoned facilitator who has dedicated his life to studying human interaction. He has solved the decision-making problem by creating a technique where people need to understand other perspectives and points of view while sharing their own. As a result, people make decisions together and engage in breakthrough decision-making. In this process, the interchange of ideas leads to new insights and a shared understanding about how to move forward as a group.
