- **Event Name**: Facilitator's Compass: How to facilitate with Any Group and Team
- **Event Start and End Date**: Thu, 19 Jun, 2025 at 10:00 am – Sun, 22 Jun, 2025 at 02:00 pm
- **Event Description**: Develop your inner compass to navigate any group challenge with confidence!

In this training, we'll work with both your internal and external guidance systems - that unique compass every facilitator develops - to navigate any organizational ecosystem with the key references and tools to get oriented in any kind of situation.
We won't just talk about it; we'll put it to the test through real case studies and lived experiences. The most powerful way to strengthen your compass? By co-creating a living laboratory - a safe learning space where we can:

?Experiment with different tools and resources developed in all our trainings
?Receive appreciative and nutritive feedback that helps us grow
?Calibrate our instruments through practice and collective reflection

? THE STORY BEHIND THE TRAINING
Every time we step into a room (a courtyard, a park or a square ;) as facilitators, trainers, or organizers, we encounter a completely unique ecosystem. I often say each organization is its own universe - with distinct memories, unspoken rules, and ways of operating. Add to this that every request we receive is different: sometimes it's to resolve conflict, other times to rebuild trust and cohesion, and often because the current way of working isn't just ineffective - it's actively burning people out.  
For years, that experience brought me the same question:
 “As facilitators, How do we navigate such fundamentally different situations?”

Through experience, I discovered that beneath surface differences, all groups share core human needs:
?The need for inspiring shared purpose that creates belonging
?The need for psychological safety where people feel heard and open to share
?The need for adaptive structures that support wellbeing and effectiveness
The most important constant across all facilitation situations isn't a tool or method - it's you. Your presence, intuition, and authentic style are what bring techniques to life.   

? WHAT YOU’LL TAKE AWAY
?A clear method to co-create a shared vision that aligns and inspires groups (North)
?Practical tools to design spaces that foster trust and psychological safety (South)
?Frameworks to navigate uncertainty and structure emergent wisdom (West)
?A deeper connection to your unique facilitation style—because you are the most powerful tool in the room (East)
When you trust your inner guidance system, you can walk into any room - any "universe" - and help people find their way forward¡  

Because true facilitation mastery isn't found in theories, but in the courageous space between trying, observing, and refining - that's where our compass finds its true north.
