Dear Eli,
Thank you so much for sharing this story with me – it’s a great inspiration. Actually I’m going to test “rotating” tables or mixing groups from task to task.
Best regards,
Joanna

In 2009, we ran a 2.5 day workshop for the Geneva Office of the United Nations Development Program. Each unit had to develop their work plan for the following year. Most of the teams were small enough to sit at a single table, but one of the teams had about 10 members present. So we split them into two tables more or less next to each other (so…[Read more]

Dear Eli, thank you for thoughts and tips, they all are important to me. I have experience with multiple tables and concept works well, althought I really feel the difference if team (people working toghether, not only group of people)can work at one table – I was hoping for some non-standard solutions:).

A competent facilitator should be able to handle around 15 participants (so that makes 4 tables). Beyond 15 participants, you will be sacrificing quality for the sake of saving…[Read more]

Hi Ariane, the answer is yes.

Joyce and I tend to use a rule of thumb of approx. 15 participants / facilitator. Best practice is closer to 8 / facilitator, but most clients are reluctant to spend that much money on the facilitation and the coordination of all of the co-facilitators would almost require a full time person doing just that.
