Strategic Planning Facilitators
Strategic Planning is probably the most important task of the senior management team, yet many managers express frustration with their past experiences. Meeting Facilitators International believes that a well designed, and well facilitated, approach can make all the difference in the world. Over the past fifteen years we have run over 500 strategic planning sessions and corporate retreats so you will be getting real world experience instead of just theory.
We can:
- Help you clarify the goals for your planning session so that they are clear, concise, meaningful and achievable
- Develop an agenda with you that addresses the issues that you need to address, instead of putting you through someone else's "cookie cutter"
- Facilitate the session to keep the group "on task", "on target", and "on time"
- Bring our experience as to what works, and what doesnt work, when working with groups
- Document the results of the meeting to capture the key decisions and action plans
For a better idea of some of the things we are commonly asked to do as part of a Strategic Planning engagement please see Strategic Planning
Corporate Retreat Facilitators
A management retreat is the perfect opportunity to get away from the all-consuming day-to-day pressures of the office and to focus on the real work of the senior management team. It is a time for you to:
- Clarify your corporate vision
- Discuss strategy
- Make key decisions
- Set your priorities
- Establish action plans
We can help you with the planning, design, facilitation and reporting of your retreat based on our experience of what works, and what doesnt work. For our thoughts on how to get the most out of a Corporate Retreat please see Corporate Retreats
Who We Are | Facilitator Profiles
We are a group of meeting facilitators focused on strategic planning and corporate retreats. Bruce Withrow is the lead facilitator and owner of the company. Most strategic planning sessions require a single facilitator and Bruce is who you will get. However, if you are planning an event that needs multiple facilitators, he can provide a team of experienced professionals. To find out more about our team, please see our Who We Are page.
How are we different?
- Facilitation is our only business
- We guarantee our work -- if you aren't satisfied you don't pay
- We do the work -- we aren't just a speakers' bureau for facilitators
How We Work
We do not believe that there is "one right way" to do strategic planning. If we design a session for you it will be based on your needs and the types of tools that will work best in your situation. For a further description of how we would work with you, please see our How We Work page.
