Planning
The facilitator works with the group to clarify goals, and objectives of the session, and to develop an agenda or plan of action.
Preparation
The facilitator prepares any necessary materials, such as handouts, slides, or activities, and communicates with the group to ensure that everyone is prepared and ready to participate.
Implimentation
The facilitator guides the group through the planned activities, encourages participation and collaboration, and helps the group stay on track and focused.
Evaluation
The facilitator may conduct an evaluation of the session to gather feedback and identify areas for improvement.
