Leadership Expert Offers Transformative
Training to Equip Displaced Workers with High-Demand Facilitation
Skills
BALTIMORE, March 17,
2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Amidst rising unemployment rates
and economic shifts, Dr. Cynthia
Pace, PhD, CPF, recognized nationally as a Certified
Professional Facilitator, unveils a timely initiative: the
"Facilitate Like a Pro" workshop. Taking place from March 31 to April 1 in Owings Mills, Maryland, this workshop is
uniquely free for individuals recently impacted by job losses,
equipping them with crucial skills to navigate and thrive in a
changing workforce.
Designed to transform ineffective meetings into dynamic
platforms for decision-making and productivity, Dr. Pace's workshop
is crucial for anyone seeking to leverage leadership and
facilitation skills in today's fast-paced business
environments.
"As we face unprecedented economic challenges, it's essential to
empower those affected by job displacement with skills that are not
only relevant but also in high demand," said Dr. Pace.
"Facilitation is more than just a tool for meetings; it's a
critical skill for leadership and entrepreneurship."
With a staggering average of 31 hours per month wasted in
unproductive meetings per employee, according to an Atlassian
study, "Facilitate Like a Pro" addresses the pervasive issue of
unproductivity in meetings, turning it into an opportunity for
skill development and professional growth.
As businesses evolve and the demand for robust leadership and
efficient project management grows, business leaders, consultants,
HR professionals, and project managers share a need to build
expertise in enhancing organizational dynamics and upgrading their
facilitation capabilities. Workshop participants will learn to:
- Master strategic facilitation techniques that enhance meeting
effectiveness.
- Transform typical meetings into sessions that inspire action
and collaboration.
- Navigate and resolve complex discussions with confidence.
This workshop provides the tools and strategies needed for
participants to forge their own pathways to employment and career
advancement – especially for those impacted by job losses. "In an
era where every minute counts, ensuring every meeting is productive
is not just an option—it's a necessity," emphasized Dr. Pace.
