Facilitation and Training

Facilitation
A skilled facilitator can make the difference between a successful meeting or event and an embarrassment. The Alder Group has provided expert facilitation services since its inception a decade ago, and as a group, our facilitators have run thousands of meetings, consultations, workshops, training courses, and a wide variety of events. Our depth of expertise enables our team to also offer highly specialized training in facilitation techniques.
What sets The Alder Group apart is our ability to balance the objectives of the meeting with the needs of the participants – and to do so with a level of eloquence, professionalism and tact that gains buy-in from everyone in the room. We have consistently received praise from our most demanding, high profile clients, who cannot afford to have a meeting go sour. Consider the following:
 |
We know adult education theory, and have designed countless courses over the years. |
 |
We are familiar with conflict resolution techniques, so vital when facilitating meetings that include antagonistic stakeholders. |
 |
We are careful planners; setting objectives, designing and drafting the most appropriate and effective agendas, planning the most complementary logistics and hospitality, and providing meeting evaluation services – and linking all of these components to measurable outcomes. |
 |
We can provide both senior and junior facilitators for a range of meetings and smaller breakout sessions, matching your specific needs to the right professional. |
Our approach, while always customized to your needs, has one central goal in mind: helping you meet your objectives during the event, and in the long term.
Whether you need help planning and facilitating a multi-day, national or regional consultation, or a short group planning session, rely on The Alder Group for your facilitation needs.
Training
The Principals and Associates at The Alder Group have planned, designed and delivered an impressive range of training courses and workshops for private sector, government, and NGO clients for decades. Our training design and delivery services span the area of management training, specialized social policy courses and custom programs delivered on behalf of dozens of public- and private- sector clients nationally.
The Alder Group's training team ensures that professional development sessions are not only rigorous and sound in the information and experience provided, but that they also offer opportunities for enhancing morale and increasing productivity.
Our Training Needs Analysis Process can help ensure that your professional development initiative is highly focused and targeted to the needs of your organization and participants. A select list of past courses and workshops offered include:
