141 - Insights about Facilitation: Conversations at the NDB Festival (Part 3)

Nov 19, 2021 marked the second NDB Festival, so I elected to do something unique and, admittedly, daunting: a live podcast recording with anyone who wished to participate. No agenda, no plans, no idea what we’d discuss.Eight conversations with eight wonderful facilitators from across the globe followed. We’ve brought those conversations together, turning them into micro-interviews and creating three short episodes, to paint a picture of the NDB 2021 experience.Listen along to hear the facilitators reflect on their learnings against their own practice, assumptions, and plans for the future. It’s a NDB moment - captured and preserved in podcast form!In this part, hear from :How it felt to demo a product at the festival, with Helena Tikkanen MerkWhy silence is the missing ingredient in workshops, with Susanne HeissHow to find - and use - your facilitator’s intuition, with Kirsty LewisDon’t miss the next show: Subscribe to the show with your favourite podcast player. And if the idea of NDB, the community of facilitators, caught your attention; click here to explore it in more detail!Thanks to our sponsor Deckhive.
