Facilitation — How it works

Bettina Büchel and Ivan Moss

Chapter Section 1 in Facilitating Groups to Drive Change, 2007, pp 1-13 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract To use facilitation, it is important to have a sound understanding of the theoretical foundations of facilitating groups. When your washing machine is broken, you probably call on a technician to help. You may have ideas about why the machine isn’t working, but you don’t really know where to start mending it. When the technician arrives and conducts a diagnostic test, he or she knows how to fix the problem. The technician has a mental model of the way the various parts of the machine interact and this model helps him or her to intervene and repair. Without this model, we really don’t know where to start and what effect an intervention may have.
