When it comes to the transference of knowledge to the learners in your programs and events, being a good facilitator is just as important (if not more so!) as being an expert in your field. The trick is, many experts feel like they’re doing a great job at facilitation when, in fact, they’re….not.

Today we’re reviewing the mistakes you don’t even know you’re making when you’re ‘unconsciously competent’ at your craft. Engagement is such an important part of whether or not your learners are achieving the outcomes you’ve promised them - a HUGE factor in their decision to stick with you for the long-game. 

Listen in as Steve Corney walks us through an elevated learner engagement strategy designed to increase participation in events like you’ve never seen before –  the holy grail that every course designer is after. 

Quick overview of what we cover:

• What to do when you ask for audience participation/engagement and it’s a no-go
• Why it’s short-sighted to assume that authority and thought leadership and unique perspective outweigh facilitator ability 
• How to decide when to deliver content statically vs dynamically
• Why how you make your future learners feel in the beginning MATTERS a ton (your knowledge alone won’t cut it if you’re trying to sell something)
• How to use learner feedback to know whether you’re nailing the balance of expertise vs. facilitation
• The best vehicle to deliver info to prevent zoom fatigue 
• How to use ‘signposting’ in your event to deliver a pitch with integrity
• What you can fall back on when your facilitator magic runs out
• The number one sign that gives away peak engagement
• The most strategic balance between teaching and engaging
