An invaluable guide that provides you with the comprehensive tools and knowledge you need to help your teams--and, ultimately, your organization--succeed.

The completely revised third edition of this longtime go-to resource for novice and experienced facilitators provides new team-building exercises as well as updated information on virtual meetings, mediation, strategic planning, and much more.

Loaded with procedures, checklists, guidelines, samples, and templates, The Facilitator's Fieldbook covers all the key areas of successful team management, including:

  • establishing ground rules
  • planning meetings and agendas,
  • brainstorming,
  • resolving conflict,
  • making decisions,
  • and helping groups optimize their time.

You'll also gain tips on maintaining the tone and flow of meetings, and will learn to determine when to delegate projects to individuals rather than assembling a group. Collaborative projects have become an increasingly prevalent feature of modern business strategies and workplace dynamics. But intentional, strategic facilitation is essential to making sure these groups and teams are effective.

It may seem effortless, but anyone leading a high-stakes meeting knows what a pressure cooker it can be. Amidst a charged atmosphere and conflicting personalities, facilitators must deftly weave groups into effective workplace teams that achieve results. It takes skill, commitment, and an arsenal of facilitation tools--all here in the complete, authoritative guide to facilitation mastery.

Now completely updated with 150 pages of new material, this third edition of The Facilitator's Fieldbook gives facilitators, organization development professionals, and consultants both a conceptual framework for understanding the facilitation process and the step-by-step procedures, checklists, worksheets, and sample documents to get it right. The book delivers practical information on establishing ground rules, planning meetings and agendas, resolving conflict, making decisions, helping groups optimize their time--and every key mediation skill you need to know. You will discover in this third edition: Character traits of successful facilitators - Signs of dysfunction in any group dynamic and what to do about each - Critical distinctions between regular meetings and task forces that facilitators must know - Preparation guidelines that improve your odds for success - A training agenda for teaching facilitation - Meeting room layouts, and when to use each - Activities for ensuring inclusion and participation - Nonverbal communication cues that help you spot lies and truths - Brainstorming and brain writing tips - Pros and cons of absolute, consultative, expert, and modified consensus - Guidelines for preparing and presenting recommendations - Tips for working with virtual teams and using technology to improve facilitation - Insights into the best contracting practices for facilitators - Shortcuts for implementing team-building exercises - Advice and activities for building trust - Updates on the latest developments, such as appreciative inquiry and large-group methods - A primer for managers on using facilitative thinking to lead their teams--and much more. If humans are complex, then groups are significantly more so. This insightful, all-encompassing guide to helping diverse, sometimes fractious, workplace groups reach positive goals is invaluable for newcomers and seasoned professionals alike.
