"Essential Facilitation Skills for an Effective Facilitator

Facilitation skills for facilitating the meeting:
Create an inclusive environment.
Communicate clear guidelines and instructions.
Group dynamics (and group management)
Empathy.
Active listening.
Verbal skills to facilitate conversations.
Conflict management.
Consensus-building.


Meetings are great opportunities to innovate, solve problems and make decisions with the collective intelligence of a group. On the other hand, meetings are also a frequent source of frustration and many people simply prefer to avoid meetings to protect their productive working hours.

This is where facilitation comes into the picture – facilitation is the art of making meetings participative and more effective.

So, what is it exactly, and what skills do you need to become a facilitator?

Let’s dive in:

What is facilitation?
If you look up the dictionary definition of facilitation, you will get the following result (from the Cambridge Dictionary): “the act of helping other people to deal with a process or reach an agreement or solution without getting directly involved in the process, discussion, etc. yourself”.

If you research it a bit more, you will see that keywords are centered around leading processes and creating participation while staying neutral. Thus, we can distill our definition further into:

“Facilitation is the art of leading people through processes towards agreed-upon objectives in a manner that encourages participation, ownership and creativity by all those involved”

From this point, it would be an easy shortcut to say that the facilitator is the person doing facilitation. And to expand upon it, according to Google’s definition, a facilitator is a “person or thing that makes an action or process easy or easier”.

These definitions bring us closer to understanding what a facilitator does and what facilitation is, but let’s dig in more into what the actual role of a facilitator is and how group facilitation skills can help teams be more productive.
