[Downtown Dharma Listserve] Small Community Group Seeks Facilitator for Strategic Dialogue

Small Community Group Seeks Facilitator for Strategic Dialogue

Are you an experienced facilitator, or know of one?  We're part of a small community group that is looking to undertake a strategic visioning exercise to explore next steps for sustainability and a possible scale up.  We have several programs for the community that have gained a committed following, and we're trying to understand the best way to serve the community within our own capacity as volunteers going forward. 

We are looking to engage with an facilitator to lead us through that conversation.  Facilitation may be something you do full time professionally, or have had experience with on or off the job at some point. We're imagining have a day of structured dialogue and reflection amongst 6 people (e.g. a 3 hour session in the morning, break for lunch, then a 3 hour afternoon session) that would conclude with consensus on possible next steps.

We would ask you to serve as an impartial lead of the dialogue, and also to serve in a reflective and strategic capacity, offering feedback at day's end about what you have heard.  You might reflect back to the group possible consensus and action points, and/or offer recommendations for action. 

We have funds to support a facilitator with a small stipend as compensation for time and commitment spent. Our funds are limited, so commitment to the ethos of nonprofit organizing, spiritual communities, or service is desirable.  If you are interested in this possibility, please reach out to Jeremy Mohler @ jeremylmohler@gmail.com  and Megan Doherty @ megkath@gmail.com for a brief conversation.  Or if you know of someone who might be interested, please forward this on!
