Facilitation

Facilitation is the skill of guiding a group through an experience or discussion toward a goal — designing the process, keeping everyone engaged, drawing out insight, and steering toward a useful outcome.

In experiential training, the facilitator is the difference between an event and real learning: they run the debrief that connects an activity back to the workplace, pull quiet voices in, and surface the principle the group discovered.

Good facilitation is largely invisible when done well — the group feels it did the thinking, which is exactly the point.
