As a facilitator you will help everyone benefit from one another during the free-form discussions. A great experience is inclusive, satisfying, and eye-opening, and this does not happen by accident.
We are looking for the following qualities in a facilitator:
- To create the proper Open Space environment, the facilitator seeks to develop and amplify the natural flow of conversation.
- To develop the natural flow of conversation, the facilitator seeks to bring together complementary participants.
- To bring together complementary participants the facilitator elicits the participants’ genuine interests.
- To elicit the participants’ genuine interests, the facilitator confidently expresses her own genuine interest.
- To confidently express her own genuine interest the facilitator holds the well-being of the participants foremost in her mind.
- To amplify the natural flow of conversation the facilitator promotes generative speech and dampens destructive speech.
- To discern the generality of speech the facilitator listens for the energy of intention from the participants.
- To listen for the energy of intention from the participants the facilitator holds the well-being of the participants foremost in her mind.
- The facilitator is also responsible for documenting at least the high-level points from each session.
