<b>Feb 7, 2018 @noon Pacific</b><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in"><span style="color:#1F4E79">Many of us are familiar with the practice of “active listening.” This webinar will help facilitators and discussion leaders further develop their skills to listen beneath the surface
of what's being said. You will receive instruction in advanced facilitation concepts supported by examples from fellow librarians. Skill in multi-dimensional listening is particularly relevant in today's society that bombards us with things intended to make
us react instead of respond. Learn how to help the entire group listen together more skillfully for clues to where there might be common ground while respecting differences that arise. Join us to hone your listening and facilitation skills and bring questions
from your own experiences. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in"><span style="color:#1F4E79">Basic facilitation skills involve keeping a group on topic and on time. But what happens when a participant needs special attention? This webinar will identify common types of disruptive
behavior and share multiple methods for facilitators to keep the conversation constructive. We’ll discuss what kinds of factors lead caring people to become the “difficult” ones to better understand which strategy to use when. We’ll also review how to create
the conditions that reduce the likelihood of difficult of behaviors in the first place. Bring questions from your own challenging facilitation moments for the extended question and answer session.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
