Enhancing the Team    Meeting Facilitation / Consultative Facilitation

 Consultative Facilitation

Because implementing good thinking is THE reason for meeting, we take great steps to make sure we clearly understand your goals for the outcome. CI International recognizes the importance of marrying your vision, initiative and capacity to visible results. We also understand the huge investment in human capital when you take your leadership or team out of the workflow for several days. Therefore, we take the time to understand your challenges, culture and systems. We blend that depth of understanding with our unique skills, tools and experiences to create an outcome that exceeds your expectations. What you accomplish will be right on target with your stated goals and ROI in time and money.

Having it your way
To make sure that clients get what they want from their meeting or conference we follow a six-step process.

  1. Client Conference - We listen to your intentions and desires. We help you clearly define your goals for success, both in the meeting and beyond.
     
  2. Facilitation Proposal – We submit a proposal that describes how we can help you achieve your goals, including a description of the broad process steps and all of the deliverables. We recognize that the meeting is a dynamic process and that new insights and ideas can emerge that could significantly shift original intentions. Our proposal allows for alternatives and different methods for emerging needs.
     
  3. Proposal Acceptance – Following acceptance, pre-work is done that often includes talking to each of the meeting attendees.
     
  4. On-going “Course Adjustments” – Consultative facilitation requires that we work in close partnership with you during the meeting to make sure that we are making the best possible use of your time and that we are correctly observing the interests and twists of the meeting.
     
  5. Follow-up Deliverables - Immediately after the session is over, a complete report describing everything that went on in the meeting is prepared. All action items agreed to by the participants are documented as part of this report.
     
  6. Implementation - As the meeting service is an extension of the workplace, we can help facilitate the execution of the action items through counsel and support to meeting participants.

Testimonials

"Two months ago, we convened a meeting of senior leaders and our associates involved in responding to emergencies. The purpose of the meeting was to evaluate our response to the events of September 11th, 2001. The support and facilitation provided by the CI International team of professionals contributed immeasurably to the experience."
Deputy Administrator, GSA
