How Can Not Knowing Make Me A Better
Facilitator?
An experiential, interactive and
playful workshop for facilitators
Enhance your facilitation skills by learning
to let go of all theories, knowledge and expectations so you can perceive more
accurately and apply your skills more effectively.
“Not knowing” is not the same as ignorance.
Whilst knowledge and understanding is of course essential for
effective facilitation, it can sometimes interfere with our ability to perceive
accurately.
In this workshop we will explore how we can develop – or recover
– the ability to set aside our knowledge so we can perceive innocently, through
the eyes of a child.
As the Zen Master who said to his student that he can only learn
from him when he has “emptied his cup”, we will discover what happens when we
are willing to observe without interpreting.
This will clarify our bias and enable us to connect more
authentically, and to apply our knowledge more effectively.
