Facilitated Conversations: Shaping Ideas & Actions
At HIP we host and facilitate conversations that help organizations define and realize their visions. Our skilled facilitators create a safe space for open dialogue, idea and knowledge sharing, and full group participation. The questions we ask lead to exploration, discovery, and transformation within the framework of the organizational vision, mission, and values.
​
At HIP, we work closely with your team to design a work plan that reflects the values, goals, and timelines of your unique situation. This becomes our road map for ensuring timelines, budgets, and desired outcomes are realized. Our facilitated dialogues build upon individual, team, and organizational capacity and focus on ensuring that existing strengths, assets and opportunities become the foundation of the planning process. Each session ends with the creation of an action plan and a system for holding the team accountable.
​
At HIP Strategic Consulting we believe that:
-
Everyone has the capacity to contribute and bring value to the conversation.
-
Stakeholders have great (often innovative) ideas about the organizations they work with.
-
When stakeholders are invited to share ideas and knowledge, new ideas and approaches arise, and new opportunities are discovered.
-
There are a wide variety of ways and levels to engage stakeholders - choosing the right method at the right time is essential.
-
Honest, open, and transparent conversations improve stakeholder buy-in, increase organizational loyalty, and enhance long-term results.
-
Clear, concise, relevant, and timely action plans that arise out of collaborative conversations are more likely to be utilized.
​
The work we do with our clients is built on these foundational community engagement principles.
At HIP Strategic Consulting we use our innovative and powerful talk > action > accountability > results conversation model to move our clients forward.
