View Resource

Duration: 60 min
Cost: Free
Presenters: Paul McGregor and Leanne Robb

Community engagement meetings and workshops are an important part of your engagement strategy. But sometimes they seem like a lost opportunity.

  • You may be finding it challenging to:
  • manage loud or angry outbursts
  • keep to time and stay organised
  • ensure people don’t take over with stuff that’s unrealistic, unworkable or off topic

In this webinar, community engagement thought leader, Paul McGregor will share how to prepare faster, while ensuring you spend less money mopping up afterwards. Ultimately, it’s about getting deeper insights and more traction from your community engagement meetings and workshops.

Hosted by Leanne Robb, Granicus’ leading engagement consultant, this will be a Q&A style session where Paul will explore:

  • Why is it important to facilitate effective community engagement workshops and meetings?
  • What are some common challenges with facilitating community meetings and workshops?
  • How can we plan for success, without over-planning?
  • How do we manage loud, angry, awkward or inappropriate contributions?
  • How do we get the balance right between informing the conversation and hearing from them?

This webinar will be valuable for anybody whose work involves harnessing other people’s contributions, such as:

  • Site/project admins
  • Community engagement practitioners
  • Communications professionals
