Facilitated Workshops - 'A good facilitator enables your people to find the most appropriate solution'
Facilitated workshops are an effective means of achieving a quick consensus of views for a variety of applications. By bringing people together in a carefully orchestrated event (typically over a number of ½ day sessions) they can be given the opportunity to exchange views, dispel misunderstanding and to reach agreement within a far shorter time-scale than the traditional approach.
Workshops provide a particularly effective forum for reaching agreement on requirements for systems spanning several departments or business units.

- Why Facilitated workshops work ?
- Our consultants will spend time with the Project Manager preparing for the workshop to ensure that it is effective in achieving the desired objectives.
- The right people will attend. We will ensure that the appropriate level of business knowledge, technical expertise and decision-making ability is present in the group.

- When to use Facilitated Workshops
Workshops are effective at helping to achieve objectives at most phases of a project life cycle, from project initiation right through to go-live and post implementation support. In our experience we find that workshops are particularly useful during:
- Project Initiation, to establish the scope and objectives of the project
- Requirements Definition, for high level and detailed requirements analysis
- Design, to quickly build, review and agree models and prototypes
- Post Implementation, to review the success of a project and identify lessons to learn
