    Duration: 3-hour workshop 

    About the workshop:

    The Enneagram is a powerful tool to help us understand our go-to facilitation style, as well as styles and approaches we might be overlooking based on our personality type. In this interactive session, you'll learn what each type tends to focus on in facilitation and walk away with some practical ways to flex your focus and approach so you can even more effectively work with clients.

    Please take an Enneagram typing test before this workshop to get the most out of the session.

    We recommend one of these two options (one FREE and one paid):

    • If you want a deeper dive into your own type structure or want to get started using the Enneagram with your own clients, consider this paid assessment which offers a 20-page PDF of insights, an overview of the nine Enneagram types, and more: https://cpenneagram.com/taketestnow

    Learning Objectives

    In this session, participants will:

          Identify your primary center of intelligence

          Articulate how being in that center shows up in your facilitation style/work

          Define the facilitation strengths and possible blind spots related to your personality type

          Identify 3 ways you want to flex your facilitation style

    NOTE: This workshop will be recorded for distribution to all who register (breakout rooms will not be recorded).

    This is a 3-hour online workshop. It will take place from 12:00pm to 3pm Eastern Time.

    Duration: 90-minute workshop

    About the workshop

    How are we different as facilitators? Where do we overlap? Who would we hire or partner with? Who would hire you or partner with you?

    Just as we wouldn’t dump people into a room and hope they’ll magically figure out strategic planning, neither is it effective to release people into a room and hope they’ll magically make the best connections. That’s the value of facilitated networking.

    In this highly interactive, hands-on session we’ll demonstrate three practical facilitated networking techniques. And, in so doing, we’ll also aim to help you find beneficial synergies and profitable partnerships among your facilitation network.

    Learning Objectives

    In this session, participants will:

    • Learn three facilitated networking concepts to better connect participants.
    • Identify ways and places to add beneficial networking to your own facilitated sessions.
    • Expand your professional network in a meaningful way by adding valuable connections.

    NOTE: This workshop will be recorded for distribution to all who register (breakout rooms will not be recorded).

    This is a 90-minute online workshop. It will take place from 12:00pm to 1:30pm EDT.

    Speaker:

    Lee Gimpel runs Better Meetings, a meeting facilitation, training and strategy firm. The company works with associations, government agencies, and companies to improve their meetings and events. Lee’s meetings methodology is built on collaboration, engagement, and human-centered design. Much of the firm’s work leverages networking and connection-building, be that at cross-silo strategy sessions, team-building retreats, or large-scale industry conferences. He is the creator of the Conference Organizers Summit and leads a DC-area community of practice for facilitators. Often quoted about group engagement in such publications as The Guardian, USA Today, and HuffPost, he is also the contributing expert on meetings and facilitation for Forbes.

    Duration: 3-hour workshop 

    About the workshop:

    Jolts! Have we got your attention? Join us as we revisit Thiagi’s treasure trove of Jolts published in 2011. Jolts intentionally energize participants in a meaningful and purposeful way whether in a meeting, team-building session, or workshop. They also enable participants to creatively discover critical insights.

    We’ve selected a variety to explore and made a few updates to reflect our current virtual environment. We’ll “kick the tires” and test drive some with you in the main room, breakout rooms, and on Mural.

    You’ll have an opportunity to take part in a two-fold debriefing: from your vantage point as a participant and as a facilitator/trainer.

    Learning Objectives

    In this session, participants will:

    • Experience the power of Jolts to unleash energy and foster engagement.

    • Discover a variety of Jolts that you may use or adapt in your facilitation and/or training work.

    • Explore how tailoring Jolts and adapting debriefing questions can make a tangible difference.

    NOTE: This workshop will be recorded for distribution to all who register (breakout rooms will not be recorded).

    This is a 3-hour online workshop. It will take place from 12:00pm to 3pm Eastern Time.

    Speaker:

    Laura Lazar Holbrook, MA, MLS, CVF, MMP, is a trainer and facilitator who designs and facilitates customized training sessions and retreats for associations, non-profits, and government agencies. Laura specializes in unleashing participant energy, creativity and insights to advance professional growth and organizational effectiveness. Whether the focus is on developing new skills, rolling out an organizational initiative, or enhancing team effectiveness, she brings versatility, flexibility, and integrity to the table. Laura leverages her deep understanding of best virtual practices and an ever-expanding repertoire of tools to create environments in which participants can connect, share, and support each other. In doing so, she draws on Liberating Structures, Technology of Participation, simulations and other interactive strategies. Laura has enjoyed collaborating with Tanja for several years on a variety of virtual projects.

    Tanja Sarett, M.A., CFRE, CVF, ACC, is a facilitator, trainer, and executive leadership coach passionate about helping nonprofit organizations increase innovation, effectiveness, and revenue. Appreciating the opportunities in the virtual world to achieve results and bring people and teams together (no matter where they live), Tanja has developed her virtual toolbox on Zoom, Mural, and Spatial Audio sites. She brings to her work a wide range of collaborative and creative techniques and tools from IDEO Design Thinking, Liberating Structures, the Technology of Participation, and the Agile community. Tanja offers train-the-trainer sessions for facilitators and nonprofit professionals to empower them in the virtual world. Now, Tanja is looking forward to another MAFN workshop and teaming up again with Laura, who is equally excited about experimenting with new methods and sharing them with facilitator colleagues.

We will use an open space workshop format to consider everyone’s ideas and collaborate in real time. You will have chances to surface your own challenges, share your experiences, and practice your messaging in an interactive and safe environment.

    There will be many moments to learn from each other and build relationships with other facilitators. All are welcome, whether you’re an internal or external facilitator, experienced facilitator, or just starting your facilitation journey. Sign up for as many of the three 90-minute sessions as you feel fit your needs. We will hold these events in addition to the regular programming from both organizations. Sign up today!

Maybe:
  • You attended a workshop somewhere else and thought to yourself, "this would be a great workshop for MAFN members!" 
  • There's a facilitation technique or subject you'd like to know more about?
  • You've seen a really engaging presenter you want to tell us about.
  • There's a topic you would like to present!
Let us know!
