The Journey of Faciitation from a Personal Perspective

The field of Process Facilitation has only been named as a professional field over the last 20 years.  The professional association, the International Association of Facilitators, began in 1994. But the art of guiding groups in meetings to engage people and to accomplish group tasks has been around for a much longer time.  I have been fortunate to be a part of this field for more than 40 years.  These are my occasional musings on the development of the art and the trend toward meaningful participation in decision-making from my personal experience.
