Snapshot: Virtual facilitation
Designing interactive sessions and collaborative working approaches in these volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous times means acknowledging the current circumstances and immediate future context, and then creating the right conditions so that individuals can contribute their experience and skills in in ways that are meaningful and valued.
It also means the focused development of cultural dispositions that are compatible with this dynamic way of thinking and working.
Virtual convening and facilitation enables us to play a role in supporting your current strategic priorities, while also enabling all involved to be highly adaptive to emerging realities – responsive to strategic leadership, teams and stakeholders.
The key elements of a ‘virtual convening’ program for your organisation could include:
- Designing engaging and useful content for distributed staff or stakeholders
- Coordinating & delivering facilitated virtual sessions using multiple modes – these may be live linked discussion (eg video sessions) or virtual collaboration (eg chats/channels)
- Facilitating virtual co-design activities across disciplines, time-zones and cultures.
- Providing leadership support & advice
- Enabling the real-time sharing of practice & lessons-learned
- Building a learning culture – shaping responses & harvesting insights for future use by organisation leadership.
