The Interaction Method™ is a research-based approach for building consensus, reconciling differences, and taking collaborative action.
Facilitate High-Stakes Meetings
Learn facilitation techniques for high-stakes meetings. Learn how to guide groups whose members may have widely divergent backgrounds and views to successful outcomes.
Improve Performance Across Three Dimensions
When meeting leaders and facilitators apply The Interaction Method, groups produce better results, improve work processes, and build stronger relationships.
Build A More Collaborative Culture
Our facilitation workshops are also powerful tools for effective culture building. Our results demonstrate when people utilize the Interaction Method in meetings, the organization adopts a common collaborative language and a set of effective meeting routines. The results: less wasted time, shared responsibility, and more productive meetings.
The most productive and effective meetings have good facilitators to thank. Productive facilitators discuss the agenda, cut through diversionary and time-wasting tactics, and resolve conflict — all in one meeting.
Reduce the instances of unproductive meetings with Interaction Associates’ facilitation training. Our Essential Facilitation workshop gives participants a deep set of tools and applied learning experiences to guide the process, broker communication, build agreement, resolve conflict, and transfer capability. Participants learn the Interaction Method, a facilitated approach for building understanding and agreement among people.
Interaction Associates methods have been used by hundreds of organizations to make better decisions, generate faster (and better) decisions, and increase creativity and productivity.
