The Competencies to Be a Good Facilitator

I find the title “The skills you need to be a great facilitator” from the Grape People Vlog. Pepe, who I respect as a facilitation teacher, mentions many powerful words.

*To be a great facilitator, you do not have to copy the style of other successful facilitators. 

*You need to have a solid foundation of knowledge, traits, and habits. This foundation is your groundwork for how you approach group leadership.

*5 competencies

-1)Neutral role

-2)Choosing the correct stages for a workshop

-3)Choosing the right emergent and convergent tools

-4)Creating a sense of psychological safety

-5)Presence

As for -2) -3), I think these skills are more technical, so I need to study first and try this knowledge in a real workshop. I think -1)-4)-5) are more difficult to learn and are important talents for the facilitator. This could be a warm heart for people to help solve problems. This passion could be an essential element of the facilitator.
