The Lazy Facilitator... “You’re such a relaxed, laid-back, and maybe even lazy facilitator!”I received this feedback during a recent Liberating Structures workshop. It was meant as a compliment, though the “lazy” part needed some clarification. 😄I do take it as a compliment. If you’re the busiest person in the room as a facilitator, something *probably* isn’t quite right.When I started facilitating, I *was* the busiest person in the room. I ran around clarifying instructions, answering questions, prepping the following steps, taking notes, and even sorting coffee and cookies.We often didn’t achieve our purpose, but I received compliments for working hard — like that somehow made up for it. 🤷♀️In hindsight, the problem was me. I was so busy micromanaging that I lost sight of the bigger picture.How to connect with AgileDad:- [website] https://www.agiledad.com/- [instagram] https://www.instagram.com/agile_coach/- [facebook] https://www.facebook.com/RealAgileDad/- [Linkedin] https://www.linkedin.com/in/leehenson/
