COURSE OVERVIEW:

Welcome to the Plan & Manage Facilitated Workshops course. This program equips you with the practical skills, planning frameworks, and facilitation techniques necessary to design, run, and follow up on highly effective facilitated workshops. You will explore what a facilitated workshop is, why it is an essential organisational tool, and the direct and indirect benefits it brings to teams seeking clarity, innovation, collaboration, and alignment. This course also examines the principles and rules that underpin successful facilitation, the facilitator’s style and responsibilities, and the boundaries of what facilitated workshops can and cannot achieve. You will also learn how workshop facilitation differs from chairing a meeting, how to handle non-contributing participants, when and how a facilitator should express opinions, why facilitators must remain unbiased, and why they are responsible for keeping the workshop to time and ensuring effective follow-up.

This course begins by examining the workshop lifecycle, including how to plan a facilitated workshop, how to define the workshop purpose, and how to determine whether participants are being invited for the right reasons. You will explore the importance of conducting appropriate research during planning, how to design the workshop structure, and how much structure is required based on your objectives. This section introduces the typical workshop sequence, the importance of varying workshop activity, and the techniques that help facilitators shift pace, maintain engagement, and encourage productive discussion. You will also explore a wide range of workshop tools and techniques, including introduction techniques, discussion openers, structured discussion tools, brainstorming, idea-whittling techniques, and fuzzy discussion tools used when issues require open interpretation and conceptual exploration. You will learn how to produce an agenda that is clear, purposeful, and aligned with the workshop’s objectives.

The next learning area focuses on managing a facilitated workshop in real time. You will explore the facilitator’s responsibilities on the day of the workshop, including how to guide participants through activities, how to ensure workshop aims are clear, and how to support participants in completing the necessary work. This section also examines the importance of physical set-up, how to introduce the workshop effectively, and how the facilitator demonstrates strong listening and questioning skills to deepen engagement and stimulate constructive contributions. You will learn how to run open-forum discussions, manage individual tasks, coordinate small group work, and maintain control through effective time management. These skills ensure that workshops remain productive, on track, and aligned with agreed outcomes.

The course concludes by examining how to bring facilitated workshops to a successful close, including how to summarise key outputs, confirm decisions, assign responsibilities, and identify follow-up actions. You will explore why facilitators are responsible for post-workshop follow-up and how documenting outcomes supports accountability and momentum. This section reinforces that an effective workshop does not end when participants leave; instead, it is sustained through structured communication, ongoing guidance, and strategic next steps that help embed the workshop’s outcomes into organisational practice.

By the end of this course you will be able to plan, design, manage, and close facilitated workshops with confidence; apply a full suite of facilitation tools and techniques; guide diverse groups toward clear outcomes; and uphold the professional facilitation principles needed to ensure productive, inclusive, and high-value workshop experiences.

Loved the pillows
Color: Blue, Size: Queen Size Set of 2
I don’t get paid for reviews so if you want a real one here ya go …. These pillows are great in my opinion. They came vacuum sealed and popped right up “ big and fluffy” immediately, as in big enough I wasn’t sure they would fit in my pillow cases. I used them last night and even though they are full, big and fluffy they still smashed down to a proper size when I laid my head down. First night in a long time I did wake up with a headache. I was extremely happy with these pillows. Now cooling ….I didn’t really find a difference from a reg pillow but, that again just could be me. Hope this helps

Heavenly Sleep Upgrade – DIORIS Pillows Are a Dream Come True!
I’ve finally found the perfect pillows! The DIORIS Queen Pillows Set of 2 has completely transformed my sleep experience. From the moment I laid my head down, I felt like I was at a luxury hotel — but right in my own bedroom! These pillows strike the ideal balance between softness and support. The premium down alternative filling cradles the head and neck gently, yet offers just the right amount of firmness. Whether I sleep on my side, back, or stomach, these pillows adapt perfectly and keep me comfortable all night long. The slow-rebound, breathable fiberfill is a game changer. It stays cool, supports proper posture, and even helps reduce neck pain — something I’ve struggled with for years. I wake up feeling refreshed and ache-free, which is priceless.

Very thin & no support
Size: Queen (U.S. Standard)
I was thinking these pillows were going to be kind of firm with the way they are described and the picture but they are very thin and when I laid down on it, it was like whatever is in the pillow just instantly moved to each side of my head. Definitely not for me and my neck issues.
