Nowadays, with the increasing pressures on organisations to produce results quickly, the role of facilitator has grown to professional proportions.

The vital processes which help groups and individuals learn and develop, plan strategies, gather information, solve problems, manage conflicts or simply reach consensus must therefore be guided by sensitive, well-trained professionals.
