Meeting Facilitation

Every meeting is designed to meet the specific requirements. At Greenhouse Training we follow these steps:

• Briefing from client manager or meeting owner to understand what is required from the meeting.
• Greenhouse Training submit a draft proposal on how the meeting could be run to deliver the desired outcomes. This proposal includes costs.
• If the customer accepts the proposal, Greenhouse Training would then contact all of the participants (or a proportion for meetings over about 20 people) to understand their perspective on the meeting.
• Greenhouse Training then design processes for the meeting to achieve the outcomes. This would include designs for templates or outputs as appropriate.
• Before the meeting, Greenhouse Training would fully brief the meeting owner on the final design agreeing what form of outputs will be required (e.g. copies of charts, typed output etc..)
• The meeting is then facilitated by Greenhouse Training according to the design but with the flexibility to improvise if required.
• Final outputs are delivered to meeting owner.

Examples of Meeting Facilitation

Strategy and Vision Development
All organisations need a sense of direction to which its members feel connected. This meeting enables the creation of vision and strategy in a way that involves people and allows for ease of onward communication and evolution.

Strategic Planning
Having defined a sense of direction (e.g. vision, goals) businesses need aligned action. A Strategic Plan is the first step to such alignment and involvement and communication of that plan will enable people to choose the right things to do and do them right.

Partnering
Increasingly businesses are working in partnership to be successful in competitive markets. Success stems from bringing together and using the different strengths of the organisations involved in the partnership whilst avoiding the clashes that these same differences can cause.

Idea Generation
In all businesses today innovation is key to success. Whether you need to be innovative in the way you operate or in market / product development, an Idea Generation meeting can enable you to generate great ideas and turn them into actionable plans.
