Need a Facilitator?

All consultants in The Canton Group consider facilitation a core competency, regardless of where they learned it. Lenny Shine and a number of The Canton Group's other consultants are deeply experienced facilitators and they have applied the same techniques in many organizations. In fact, Lenny helped define and develop the Work-Out methodology when he was hired as a GE Work-Out consultant in 1990.

Our techniques improve communication in a significant way. We help groups of leaders think together. We harvest group intelligence from gatherings of individual minds, building a consensus for action along the way. We challenge, analyze, distill, and capture the best thinking available in the group. Together we build a plan of action and aid the leader in applying techniques to ensure those actions are carried out.
