  1. Facilitator

    A facilitator is a person who helps a group of people to work together better, understand their common objectives, and plan how to achieve these objectives, during meetings or discussions. In doing so, the facilitator remains "neutral", meaning they do not take a particular position in the discussion. Some facilitator tools will try to assist the group in achieving a consensus on any disagreements that preexist or emerge in the meeting so that it has a solid basis for future action.

  1. facilitator

    A facilitator is an individual or entity that aids or enables a process or activity to occur more smoothly and effectively by providing support, guidance, and resources to the participants involved. This can involve managing and coordinating logistics, encouraging open communication and collaboration, mediating conflicts, and ensuring that everyone has the necessary tools and information to achieve the desired outcome. Facilitators often act as neutral and unbiased intermediaries, focusing on creating an inclusive and productive environment for the participants rather than directly influencing the content or decision-making.
