Facilitation...A Talent To Be Cherished

So much of human progress has been the result of the creative thinking of teams. Facilitation of group dialogue, the unification of perspective and will, building a shared consensus, should be among our most cherished talents.

It's a demanding job...but oh, so needed!
To provide structure.... while fostering freedom of thought
To engage in dialogue...while neutralizing one's own participation
To foster self-expression and creativity...while keeping yours in check
To enlarge the capacities of others...while diminishing their dependence on you
To bring closure, achieve consensus...while nurturing a safe haven for sharing without bias or prejudice
To lead...while going where others choose to go

True leadership will come when leadership is willing to give up its monopoly on strategy and involve all individuals in an organizational discussion of destiny and legacy.	The significant problems we face cannot be solved at the same level of thinking we were at when we created them
-Gary Hamel, Author of Competing for the Future	-Albert Einstein

The empowered organization is one in which individuals have the knowledge, skill, desire, and opportunity to personally succeed in a way that leads to collective organizational success.
