NEW!
Facilitating to Lead
- Leadership Strategies for a Networked
World- $35.00
Jossey-Bass 2006
“Finally,
a book that clearly describes the
detailed, inner workings of this important
new role.”-- Robert Vance, founding
member, International Association
of Facilitators
Of all the skill sets that support
the shift from a traditional management
role to a more collaborative approach,
none is more relevant than that of
the role of the facilitator. The beliefs,
behaviors, and practices of facilitation
are precisely what all leaders need
to acquire and put into action. In
Facilitating to Lead! renowned facilitation
expert Ingrid Bens applies her proven
concepts of facilitation to the leadership
role and demonstrates that facilitation
is an effective work style, not merely
a meeting technique. Throughout the
book, Bens outlines the organizational
and personal benefits of facilitative
leadership and includes useful checklists
to help leaders determine the situations
when facilitative leadership is most
appropriate to apply. Because empowerment
is a core issue in the implementation
of facilitative leadership, the book
presents a four-level model that reframes
empowerment from a vague concept to
a concrete structuring tool.
