Facilitation

Effective facilitation requires both a process to provide structure to your discussions and a facilitator with the skills and flexibility to bring out the best from all participants and ensure that no ideas are lost in the process.  We offer our clients a breadth of experience in both aspects – a variety of processes designed to meet differing needs in relation to your goals and the size of your group, and facilitators with experience in working successfully with a broad range of groups.  We can establish the framework to enable your team to identify and solve problems, make decisions, and plan for a successful future.

We also facilitate focus group research.  An effective focus group involves more than getting people into a room to ask them some questions.  Properly facilitated, focus groups can yield valuable qualitative information and improve relationships with your clients/customers by demonstrating genuine interest in their ideas and opinions.  We have facilitated dozens of successful focus groups, and have taught techniques of focus group research to others.  We’ll help you get the most from yours.

Golden Sage has facilitated sessions for:
  • Post-secondary students, faculty and staff
  • Employers and industry representatives
  • Producer organizations
  • Not-for-profit organizations

If you are looking for someone to guide your organization through a process to arrive at its own answer, decision, or deliverable, contact Golden Sage.
