Facilitative Leadership
Susan Fuszard, M.S., CEAP University of Wisconsin-Madison​
Sandy co-facilitated a workshop on Integral Facilitation for members of the Employee Assistance Professional Association (EAPA).
Our work often requires us to facilitate pairs in conflict, or group members in a variety of settings.
The holistic approach of this model was helpful in reminding us of the need to manage ourselves first: considering our own opinions, biases and reactions to what goes on in the midst of dynamic groups, especially when individuals may not be in agreement with each other. We learned techniques for addressing disruptive behavior in groups with respect and professionalism, and had fun practicing them under Sandy’s skilled direction.

Each team, council, board or community group has its own unique purpose for being, its own set of norms and culture created over time. But each is served by people who deserve to have their time valued with the best possible leadership.
