Description

Aimed at front-line and senior managers faced with ongoing reorganization and an increasingly reluctant workforce, this book examines what it takes to facilitate problem solving, decision-making, and workforce retention and commitment.

Six core skills essential to facilitating group processes are presented: L DBL Initiating L DBL Questioning L DBL Active Listening L DBL Responding L DBL Resolving L DBL Closing/Committing L Gottlieb discusses the most helpful tools a manager can use for facilitation, including planning, organizing, and directing group processes. Ethical guidelines are provided in conjunction with a discussion of the manager's role in the facilitation process.
