Inclusive Meeting Management – How to Facilitate Meetings to Promote Diverse, Collaborative Participation

Presented by Trenten Robinson

Meetings are the bane of many employees' work days. However, what if there are strategies you can use to promote better participation and inclusivity in meetings while also bolstering your meeting facilitation skills? Join this session to learn about and practice inclusive meeting facilitation techniques applicable to your work, school, and home environments.

Using interactive presentation materials, I will host a workshop discussing strategies for meeting facilitation that promotes participation from diverse meeting participants. These skills are universally useful for anyone who has to run meetings for their work.

Proposed Schedule:

  • 15 Minutes - Basics of Inclusive Facilitation (presentation and group discussion of basic meeting skills while reflecting on inclusivity topics)
  • 25 Minutes - Making Facilitation Inclusive (presentation and group discussion on making traditional meeting tools and strategies inclusive)
  • 20 Minutes - Practice Inclusive Facilitation (Participants are grouped and provided instructions to practice applying inclusive facilitation techniques with my support)
  • 30 Minutes - Q&A, Examples from Meetings
