Process Consultation and Facilitation Skills for OD Practitioners

ORG LP909 - Process Consultation and Facilitation Skills for OD Practitioners

Credits: 2

A key competency for OD practitioners is being able to master facilitative interventions. This course develops students’ ability to lead groups through change using process consultation and facilitation techniques and practices. Process consultation ensures practitioners work themselves out of a job leaving clients at a higher level of functioning and commitment toward managing their own growth and adaption to change. Students will demonstrate the ability to design, implement and evaluate facilitative interventions collaboratively with client systems at the group and whole systems level. The course will also teach students how to manage inclusion, foster sensitivity to difference in groups, and how facilitative and process interventions can create positive change within human systems. Seminal theory and practice models will be examined to ensure students understand the range and use of key diagnostic lenses and intervention methods.
