Administrative Considerations

Facilitators should discourage side conversations, ensure cellular phones are turned off or made silent, and manage group dynamics.  Table arrangements for in-person workshops should maximize the interaction between the Facilitator and participants.  During the workshop, Facilitators need to constantly be aware of time constraints, notifying participants about progress and moving the discussion toward the fulfilment of the workshop objectives when time is running short.

This resource was developed as part of a Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada (NSERC) project to develop open access resources to address increasing the awareness and understanding of Transcultural Communication.

The Transcultural Communications Workshop Facilitation Guide is an open educational resource. This resource provides the awareness, skills, and knowledge required for effective Transcultural Communication.
