“The Art of Facilitation seamlessly translates from community to corporate application, and is a Must Read for anyone who facilitates groups of people. A truly New Zealand perspective on communication that acknowledges the humanity behind our daily interaction, and made me personally review my practices. In an ideal world this would be compulsory reading at secondary schools and endorsed as complement to Sun Tsu’s Art of War in corporate strategy.”
Zenergy’s November 2013, 4 day Master Class took place in Auckland recently. The group purpose was ‘generating presence amidst disturbance.’ Each person worked on their own ‘leading edge’ with the assistance of the group, to take their facilitation skills to the next level. The course was facilitated by Dr Dale Hunter and assisted by Karena Hunter.
