Introducing ToP facilitation at the Moscow Facilitators Club

Thank you to everyone attending my session at today’s February meeting of the Moscow Facilitators Club hosted by Personal Image. I am pleased to share the slides I used here below, in English and Russian, along with the video we used during the session – What do facilitators do really?  The second video below is a longer introduction to ORID and the Focused Conversation method of ICA’s Technology of Participation, in Russian, from Elena Litvinova of Facilitator Club.

The session was adapted from one first shared at the 2015 IAF EMENA conference in Stockholm, Is there a single, universal principle of facilitation?  It was inspired by an earlier blog post Four steps to a universal principle of facilitation and learning.  See also (in Russian) Art of Focused Conversation: 100 Ways to Access Group Wisdom in the Workplace.

If you are in Moscow, it is not (quite) too late to register to join me for tomorrow evening’s IAF Russia meetup, or from Wednesday to Friday for Accelerated ToP Participatory Strategic Planning training with Personal Image – see you then!
