FACILITATION APPROACH EXPERIENCES AND EXAMPLES

Our objective is to create experiences that are:

Purpose is a powerful accelerator for building high performing boards and leadership teams. With focused intent, we work to harness that power to create engaging, personally vested and mission impactful facilitated experiences. We approach facilitation as an opportunity to create immersive experiences that embolden the purpose of the organization. We design experiences with intent and a focus on engagement.

• Intentional • Immersive • Engaging • Purpose-Connected from Organization to Leaders • Memorable to create meeting objective mnemonics

Below are highlights from recent retreats we’ve facilitated that illustrate these objectives in the facilitated experience we designed.

NATIONAL BLACK MBA ASSOCIATION LEADERSHIP RETREAT Having lost focus on stakeholders (professionals, students and entrepreneurs) in recent years, we created a panel experience with participants that represented each of their stakeholders. We took them to a rooftop venue and gave them binoculars to create vision snapshots to frame their strategic articulation.

IMPACT CHURCH – STAFF RETREAT VISION CONSTRUCTION

Once our strategic articulation was completed, we needed to build the implementation plan. Having led the implementation through consulting, we needed to transfer ownership of the plan to the client to continue without our support. To prepare them for this key transition, we created a vision construction experience in the space of one of the city’s most prominent commercial builder’s offices and provided construction hats and cold pack lunch pails (that they continued to use as a reminder of the experience).

CITY OF ATLANTA FULTON COUNTY LAND BANK AUTHORITY As an approach to level set new board members with old on how landbanks work, we had board members play an equity version of Monopoly with members having the opportunity to be the ‘land banker’.
