Work facilitation can be used in a variety of settings, including businesses, non-profit organizations, and government agencies. In a business setting, for example, a facilitator might be brought in to help a team develop a new product or service, or to resolve a conflict between two employees. In a non-profit organization, a facilitator might help a group of volunteers organize a fundraiser or plan a community event. And in a government agency, a facilitator might help a group of policymakers develop a new law or regulation.
There are many different skills that a good work facilitator needs, including:
* The ability to listen actively and ask thoughtful questions
* The ability to build trust and rapport with others
* The ability to manage conflict and resolve disputes
