What supported the success of these events? Not my magic jewel-like words and insights - instead, a thorough analysis to select the appropriate tool, plus ongoing conversations with the client teams about everything from issues and objectives to site, food, documentation, invitation and outreach, follow-up and more - with every one of these elements affecting or supporting dialogue. To me, the pre-work is essential - and yet, everyone tells me they do not get this sort of training in their academic programs or other facilitation training. So I decided to host a workshop to share best practices and lessons learned about the pre-work.)</span></font></i></div>
