Speaker - Facilitation
- “I was privileged to attend your presentation at ASTD International Conference. It was by far the most meaningful and useful presentation I have attended! I have been in training for almost 15 years but your presentation truly reinvigorated the way I think about facilitation and delivering a powerful message that is retained by the audience.”
-Eric Bierman, Senior Manager Sales & Development Standard Register
- “When Karen Friedman recently presented on the subject of communication during a job search, her messages were clear and compelling. Her delivery was masterful, and her content was "application ready." When it comes to connecting with and motivating an audience, Karen Friedman is second to none.”
-Mitch Weinick, Kelleher Associates
Our approach to meeting facilitation, briefings, panel discussions, team presentations, message development, and strategy sessions, allows even the most diverse group of participants to be themselves so they feel comfortable participating and contributing to the discussion or conversation. Facilitating means giving everyone a chance to speak and share ideas. But it takes an experienced facilitator to understand when to intervene and when to let the discussion continue. By helping even the most skeptical individuals think creatively, we help them generate ideas, stimulate thinking, clarify and restate goals to break through barriers and reach solutions on their own.
