Facilitation of Meetings, Negotiations and Retreats
Let's face it. A lot of meetings are a waste of time: unclear objectives, monologues and sidetracked conversations leave participants stiffling yawns and glancing at their watches. Bringing in a skilled facilitator like Zena Zumeta has a lot of benefits. Not only can she help plan and keep the meeting on track, her facilitation frees your team to focus on the issues at hand and fully participate in the meeting.
