What’s a facilitator?

Sometimes it takes a while for the right idea to land. The idea of facilitation and facilitators often comes with specific ideas of what in involved. Even amongst professionals who are themselves facilitators, there are many different ways of describing it. It wasn’t until I finally became aware of Adam Kahane’s work and his recent book Facilitating Breakthrough that more clearly understood that facilitators help people removes the obstacles to their contribution, connection, and equity so they can move forward together.
