In this episode, we look at the 5 essential modes of facilitation that will transform your group programs. Whether you're running retreats, workshops, or online courses, these five carefully balanced approaches activate different learning pathways, fostering deeper integration and genuine transformation.
By intentionally incorporating these modes into your curriculum, you'll create dynamic, engaging experiences that build authentic community. Your participants will be more likely to take meaningful action in their lives while feeling deeply connected to your work and each other.
There is an art to using these 5 modes and your groups will become more powerful with them!
