Robinson Consulting

One key skill that Facilitative Leaders use is deep listening: that is hearing what is being said and what is not being said.Listening deeply to others validates the individual and creates authentic work relationships. Deep listening makes it easier to understand others and to communicate in both positive and in challenging circumstances. Leaders who listen deeply will have better outcomes because they understand the team members they work with in ways that authoritative and disengaged leaders cannot achieve.

Facilitative Leadership is different than other types of leadership in its focus on making things easier for those who are involved. There are significant skills and attitudes that the leader employs to ensure that people feel comfortable and accountable to the work being accomplished. These will be discussed as I move forward in this discussion.

What is Facilitative Leadership? A focus on process and people to get the results needed. Poor relationships, terrible processes make it difficult for teams to create outcomes. By having the right relationships, the best ways of doing things, the leader as facilitator ends up with the best outcomes from the team/group. This is leadership worth contemplating!
