2 hour online workshop using Zoom
We encourage taking other sessions in this series which build upon and compliment one another: you can see the full series of upcoming public workshops here.
Engaging groups in financial information and decision-making is a crucial part of building shared power and collectively allocating resources. We’ll address some common barriers to participation by demonstrating facilitation tools that take into account a variety of learning styles and modes of engagement and aim to approach the subject in ways that can foster greater connection with the material instead of alienation. We’ll share tools and tips for keeping things interesting and involving members of your group in meaningful ways. There will be games, stories, charts, & scavenger hunts!
Learning Goals:
· increase understanding of different modes of presenting financial information
· increase understanding of what modes of presentation best fit your organization
· build confidence in facilitating group finance conversations
· have fun!
Facilitators: Alex Fischer & Lauryl Berger-Chun
