COURSE OVERVIEW:

Welcome to the Plan & Manage Facilitated Workshops course. This program equips you with the practical skills, planning frameworks, and facilitation techniques necessary to design, run, and follow up on highly effective facilitated workshops. You will explore what a facilitated workshop is, why it is an essential organisational tool, and the direct and indirect benefits it brings to teams seeking clarity, innovation, collaboration, and alignment. This course also examines the principles and rules that underpin successful facilitation, the facilitator’s style and responsibilities, and the boundaries of what facilitated workshops can and cannot achieve. You will also learn how workshop facilitation differs from chairing a meeting, how to handle non-contributing participants, when and how a facilitator should express opinions, why facilitators must remain unbiased, and why they are responsible for keeping the workshop to time and ensuring effective follow-up.

This course begins by examining the workshop lifecycle, including how to plan a facilitated workshop, how to define the workshop purpose, and how to determine whether participants are being invited for the right reasons. You will explore the importance of conducting appropriate research during planning, how to design the workshop structure, and how much structure is required based on your objectives. This section introduces the typical workshop sequence, the importance of varying workshop activity, and the techniques that help facilitators shift pace, maintain engagement, and encourage productive discussion. You will also explore a wide range of workshop tools and techniques, including introduction techniques, discussion openers, structured discussion tools, brainstorming, idea-whittling techniques, and fuzzy discussion tools used when issues require open interpretation and conceptual exploration. You will learn how to produce an agenda that is clear, purposeful, and aligned with the workshop’s objectives.

The next learning area focuses on managing a facilitated workshop in real time. You will explore the facilitator’s responsibilities on the day of the workshop, including how to guide participants through activities, how to ensure workshop aims are clear, and how to support participants in completing the necessary work. This section also examines the importance of physical set-up, how to introduce the workshop effectively, and how the facilitator demonstrates strong listening and questioning skills to deepen engagement and stimulate constructive contributions. You will learn how to run open-forum discussions, manage individual tasks, coordinate small group work, and maintain control through effective time management. These skills ensure that workshops remain productive, on track, and aligned with agreed outcomes.

The course concludes by examining how to bring facilitated workshops to a successful close, including how to summarise key outputs, confirm decisions, assign responsibilities, and identify follow-up actions. You will explore why facilitators are responsible for post-workshop follow-up and how documenting outcomes supports accountability and momentum. This section reinforces that an effective workshop does not end when participants leave; instead, it is sustained through structured communication, ongoing guidance, and strategic next steps that help embed the workshop’s outcomes into organisational practice.

By the end of this course you will be able to plan, design, manage, and close facilitated workshops with confidence; apply a full suite of facilitation tools and techniques; guide diverse groups toward clear outcomes; and uphold the professional facilitation principles needed to ensure productive, inclusive, and high-value workshop experiences.

“My heart bows to you and you only, Huntress.”
Format: Kindle
3.5 🌟 This book popped up in my KU recommended reading suggestions and the synopsis sounded like what I was in the mood for. I'm so glad I took a chance on it. I went into this knowing absolutely nothing about it and ended up really liking it. I love when this happens. The main characters are likeable and I easily found myself rooting for them. There is a mystery element to each of their backstories that I enjoyed watching unfold and can't wait to get more of. Wolf, in particular, has me fixated. Love him. I found this to be an entertaining, addictive read with a plot that moves along at a good pace. It reads so easily I found myself very reluctant to put it down. Lots of twists and turns and the angst is there. A good set up for the next book to come, for sure. My issues with this book....the dialogue feels a bit juvenile at times and there is a repetitive over use of a particular word phrasing that I found myself giving the ole eye-roll to. There are, without a doubt, some pretty cliche moments that gave me a bit of the cringe. I think this could've certainly 100% benefited from more depth regarding the world building. Perhaps the world building was sacrificed to keep the pacing quick? Just a guess. Also, the lack of consistency of character for the FMC was really evident and so she feels quite illogical at times. Overall, this was a fun and enjoyable read that hit the spot well enough for me. That ending certainly has me impatiently pining for book 2!

Interesting take on the genre
Format: Kindle
True rating: 3.25 ⭐️ I enjoyed the fresh take on the genre. The best way I could describe the setting and world is an apocalyptic dystopian version of Farie where vampires, fae, and angles struggle to survive in what is left of the world. It was definitely interesting throwing the academy/hunger games aspect into this world as well. Even though I guessed the final reveal early on in the book, I kept hoping I was wrong, and it would take a surprising turn. While the "plot twists" were a bit predictable to me, I still enjoyed the ride this book took me on. Another downfall for me was the plot holes in the world building... I.E. if society has fallen and the world is in the aftermath of war, how are there trains running around the world? Just to take young adults to the trials to get into the golden city? How is the train maintained, the tracks clear, etc? However, I did enjoy the FMC & MMC and thought they were fleshed out nicely. I also enjoyed the side characters but wish some were developed more like Ashalin (sp?). I do find myself rooting for the MCs to succeed and find happiness together, which is obviously an important aspect for romantasy. Overall, was this an earth-shattering, mind-bending, terrific piece of literature? No. But was it the worst thing I've read this year? Also, no. This book has, to me, the bones of a great read & just needs a bit more to push it from an alright book to a great book. Overall ratings: Plot- 3.5⭐️ World building 3⭐️ Spice 2.5 🌶🌶 Main characters 4 ⭐️ Supporting characters 3.5⭐️

great book
Format: Kindle
I am really excited to meet the author at the book retreat this month. I really enjoyed this world that she built and most of the female main character Huntress is so awesome. She goes through a lot in this book and the ending; wow! I wouldn't have even guessed. I highly recommend everyone to read this book. I have been so lucky this year that almost all the books I have read have been, so far, 5 out 5 stars.

Fallen for the Fallen Angel – A Guilty Pleasure Worth Every Page
Format: Kindle
There’s something deeply irresistible about a dark academia or trial-based setting, a brooding and arrogant fallen angel, and a fierce heroine with enough sass to go toe-to-toe with him. Wings So Wicked is exactly that kind of book—and I devoured it in just a couple of days. To be fair, the plot isn’t groundbreaking. If you’re looking for something fresh and innovative in terms of storyline, this might not be it. But if your reader heart beats faster at the mere mention of enemies-to-lovers, jealousy-fueled banter, magical trials, betrayals, and forbidden tension—you’ll feel right at home. It’s like catnip for those of us with this particular weakness. The chemistry between the leads could have used a slightly slower burn to make the tension sizzle longer, but I still found myself completely invested in their dynamic. There are moments and phrases that feel a bit cheesy or underdeveloped, but honestly? I didn’t care. The vibes were exactly what I wanted. This book isn’t trying to reinvent the genre—it’s here to give readers like me what we crave: high-stakes magical drama, angsty romance, and the thrill of watching a badass girl and her brooding counterpart clash and spark. If that sounds like your kind of story, Wings So Wicked will hit the mark. Here’s hoping Book 2 turns up the heat and keeps the magic alive.

my new favorite book
Format: Kindle
Ok so I never write reviews but this book was so good I felt the need to write this. Firstly your introduced to Huntyr you see her closed off hard core badass than towards the end you see the most subtle change and growth it’s amazing and the enemies to friends to lovers was just perfect, AND THE TWIST AT THE END GOT ME GOOD! You see one spicy scene the whole book but it doesn’t even MATTER BECAUSE THE BOOK WAS THAT GOOD. I’ve read 85 books in 2023-2024 so far and I’m pround to say this is my all time favorite. I’m so excited to read more of Emily Blackwoods books, this was my first time reading one of hers and I’m glad I did because HOLY!! Well done Emily well done
