Conference Facilitation

Mike will run your event in a dynamic, fun and interactive way ensuring that the conference speakers shine and that their messages impact the audience. He will be the catalyst ensuring lively discussion and clear communication to the audience of the messages with wit, warmth & intelligence.

As a facilitator, his job is to help to manage a process of information exchange. While an 'expert's' role is to offer advice, particularly about the content of a discussion, Mike's role is to help with how the discussion is proceeding.

In short, his responsibility is to address the journey, rather than the destination.

Mike's personality:

  • maintains objectivity
  • releases blocks to the process
  • adapts to the changing situation
  • uses time and space intentionally
  • distinguishes process from content
  • assumes responsibility for the group journey
  • is skilled in evoking participation and creativity
  • skilled in reading the underlying dynamics of the group
  • practiced in honouring the group and affirming its wisdom
  • demonstrates professionalism, self-confidence and authenticity

Mike's style:

  • initiating discussion
  • asking rather than telling
  • more outgoing than serious
  • paying personal compliments
  • listening without interrupting
  • more persuasive than sequential
  • more like a coach than a theorist
  • more enthusiastic than systematic
  • creating energy by initiating group dynamics
  • willing to spend time in building relationships
  • keeps the big picture in mind while working on the nitty-gritty
  • drawing conclusions from intuitions rather than having to have facts

Mike has worked with directors, executives and senior managers from a host of Global Organisations, Government Departments and SME's operating in the GCC and Europe, as;

who have have commissioned him to run;
