Are you a facilitator, trainer or workshop organizer?
Do you want to develop practical skills for facilitating and training
small groups?

Tatamagouche Centre is offering a series of Leadership Development
programs,
beginning with:

Facilitating Small Groups
April 7–12, 2002, Sun. 7 pm – Fri. 1 pm

"Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, concerned citizens can
change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has." -
Margaret Mead.

Whether you are a facilitator, trainer or traditional educator, whether
your groups are coop, youth, community, church-based, private or public,
from this
program you will gain:

- greater competence in facilitating groups
- familiarity with group dynamics and process
- awareness of stages of group development
- increased ability to help various groups achieve their purpose
- the capacity to help groups make decisions,  moving from problems to
action
- how to deal with “difficult individuals” and situations
- increased ability and comfort in a variety of leadership styles

This mid-level program offers practical training based on the
Tatamagouche model of education and uses a democratic, experiential,
“strength-based” approach, affirming existing capacities and assets.

Leadership: Marg MacPherson, a Conflict Resolution Facilitator for the
Maritime Conference of the United Church of Canada and a psychosynthesis

therapist.
