My company is a Portland, Oregon based consulting firm specializing in the use of facilitation as a way to improve your performance. My services are based on the simple premise that there are times when there is more at stake than running a good meeting. Facilitation is not a task like “running a meeting” or “coming to a consensus decision.” Facilitation is about removing the obstacles that keep your business or team from improving performance. Organizing and managing effective meetings is important but facilitation is really about, empowerment, learning theory & organizational design.
.
So if you are looking for more than a good meeting, welcome to Facilitation & Process. My blog is designed to encourage you to systematically think about and build your facilitation and process skills. Feel free to contribute your thoughts because I believe we learn together as a community of practice.
