BORBS XV: Designing and facilitating team discussions

Abstract

L. Alberto Franco and Etiënne A. J. A. Rouwette

How a team decision support unfolds depends both on the design of the intervention as well as the facilitator’s actions in respond to the ongoing discussion. We describe important design choices that an analyst and client jointly need to make. The scope of the problem to be addressed is one of these. The literature on team decision support offers a range of advice on how a facilitator should work with a group, ranging from concrete tasks to more generic attitudes that capture the core spirit behind helping teams. We propose a model grounded in empirical studies that organizes central ideas in facilitation and helps novices as well as expert facilitators to decide which action is needed when.

Why should you join?

participants will learn about theory and research relevant to designing and facilitating team discussions, offering a basis to develop skills further and conduct empirical research into intervention effectiveness.
