Our Facilitation

SALT is trained in facilitation methods to lead groups using a technique of focused conversations.  Facilitated focused conversations can be used to collect data and ideas, discuss tough issues, and reflect on important issues or events. The outcome of SALT's facilitation using the focused conversation method is to:

  • provide meaningful dialogue,

  • broaden a group's perspectives,

  • elicit clear ideas and conclusions, and

  • allow the entire group to participate 

“Michael and her team have facilitated several board retreats and community listening sessions for the Mat-Su Health Foundation. She sets the table so beautifully for people participating to be real, present, and have their voices heard. She listens deeply and can see the myriad of ways people understand the issue at hand or their nuanced concerns. She and her team have a way of carefully drilling down to the key nuggets that need to be discussed and refined so that progress can happen. And all this happens against a backdrop where values are affirmed, and ground rules are followed. We are grateful for her consultation, facilitation, and partnership in our work.”
